Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the cranberries, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, sugar, and 4 cups of water.

  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until the fruits are soft and the flavors have melded together.

  3. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1/4 cup of cold water until smooth and well combined.

  4. Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the fruit mixture, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

  5. Continue cooking the Kisel over low heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency, usually around 5-7 minutes.

  6. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the Kisel cool for a few minutes.

  7. Transfer the Kisel to individual serving bowls or a large serving dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow it to set and chill.

  8. Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves to add a touch of freshness.
