1 tablespoon white vinegar or fresh calamansi juice
1/2 packet unflavored gelatin

1 tablespoon white vinegar or fresh calamansi juice

Where to find ingredients
Milk: Use standard fresh or UHT milk found in the refrigerated dairy aisle of any SM Supermarket or Robinsons. Vegetable Oil: Any neutral cooking oil like canola or sunflower oil works, available in the cooking oil aisle. Vinegar/Calamansi: White vinegar is in the condiment aisle; for a local twist, fresh calamansi juice from the wet market or produce section works excellently as a substitute for lemon. Unflavored Gelatin: Look for unflavored gelatin powder packets in the baking aisle or specialty baking supply stores like All About Baking.
Preparation method

- Pour the cold milk, vegetable oil, and vinegar (or calamansi juice) into your blender jar
- Add the prepared, slightly cooled gelatin mixture into the blender
- Blend all the ingredients on high speed until you reach a smooth, creamy consistency
