3 tbsp water

3/4 cup evaporated milk
1 1/4 cup water
6 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp almond extract

If you didn't want to use gelatin, you can substitute with a packet of agar agar powder. Agar is derived from seaweed. It is mainly used in desserts throughout Japan. Also, I found coconut milk can be substituted for the evaporated milk. It gives the jelly a nice milky shine and a creamier texture. Good stuff!
