Preparation steps
Cut melon into quarters with a large knife and cut each quarter in half. Remove large seeds with a toothpick.
Cut the flesh into smaller pieces approximately 3/4 inch thick. Cut pieces into 2-3/4-inch) strips.
Put melon sticks on wooden skewers, wrap individually in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, boil grape and black currant juice in a pot and reduce to 3/4 cups.
Soak the gelatin in cold water, drain and dissolve in the warm juice mixture while stirring. Refrigerate until the gelatin begins to solidify.
Dip each of the frozen melon sticks halfway into the gelatin-juice mixture and freeze. After the coating freezes, repeat the process again and freeze the sticks for at least another 2 hours.
