After a couple of hours in the fridge, the liquid mixture turned into jiggly jello. Just like I remember as a kid, but without the questionable ingredients.
Place the water, lemon juice, semi-defrosted strawberries, and honey in a blender jar. Blend the ingredients until they are completely smooth. Pour the mixture into a saucepan.
Over medium heat, warm the strawberry mixture until it's hot to touch. It doesn't need to boil, but it should be hot! Add the gelatin, and whisk to dissolve. If there are any clumps of gelatin that remain in the strawberry mixture, remove them and add a pinch of gelatin to compensate.
Pour the hot strawberry mixture into individual cups (I use glass Weck jars at home and plastic containers for school). If you'd like chunky jello cups, add 1 tablespoon of chopped berries (fresh or frozen) to the bottom of each cup.
Refrigerate the jello cups for at least two hours, or several days, until they are firm.
