Frozen berries are great for making all kinds of jellies: with firm whole berries, with crushed soft berries, from squeezed juice with water or from berry compote.
Jelly from frozen berries can be prepared with gelatin or agar. I prefer with agar, but I will show both options. Blueberries will make gelatin jelly, and sea buckthorn - on agar.
The list of ingredients provides approximate ratios, that is, you still need to look at the instructions for the gelling ingredients. Add the amount of sugar depending on whether you will use sour or sweet berries.

Рецепт
1. Rinse and dry the purchased berries a little, and if you harvested the berries yourself, then ... at your discretion. Prepare the gelatin as written on the package or use my values. First, soak it in cold water, and then heat it while stirring in a water bath. Owners of multicookers can set the "Multicooker 60 degrees" mode and dissolve the gelatin at guaranteed temperatures.
2. It works well if you heat the gelatin mass in the microwave, you need to heat the mass cyclically 2-3 times for half a minute at a power of 300-450, stirring each time.
3. Crush the blueberries (or other strong berries) and mix with sweet water, then strain. To prevent small seeds from getting into the jelly, strain through several layers of gauze. Some of the berries can be left whole, let them decorate the jelly. 4. Mix the resulting mors with the prepared gelatin mass.
5. Pour into bowls or molds and place in the refrigerator.
6. Boil sea buckthorn or other berries in water with sugar, that is, bring to a boil and remove from heat.
7. Then crush the berries and strain this compote.
8. First dissolve the agar powder in cold water.
9. Then bring to a boil while stirring and cook over low heat for half a minute to reveal its gelling properties.
10. Combine the agar mass with the hot berry compote, stir and pour into bowls, cups or molds. Agar jelly hardens even in warmth, but it is better to keep it in the refrigerator until serving.
