fruit terrine

this is so refreshing! i love to make this on hot summer days. my mom shared this with me after she went to a cooking class at a fun store by her house, where they demo-ed this recipe.

4 cups fresh fruit (i like grapes, blueberries and strawberries. you want to have fewer, bigger pieces of fruit)
2 cups white grape juice or white cranberry juice or martinelli's
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 pkg unflavored gelatin

pour 1/4 cup juice into a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over it. let sit.
combine 1 cup juice and sugar in a small pan. boil until sugar dissolves.
take from heat and mix gelatin mixture in.
stir in 3/4 cup juice and lemon juice.
put fruit in a loaf pan and pour juice/gelatin mixture over it.
put in refrigerator to chill for several hours.
