You are a genius! I have used this recipe twice now since the economy is tight and 2 liters are pretty cheap. When dd visits they like to drink 'Coke' (In Texas it is ALL coke- even gingerale!) When they leave I always have leftover 2liters. Now I just mix the remaining 'coke' with gelatin and water as directed BUT I do it all in a gallon ziploc bag and toss in the freezer! Squish around after freezing and viola! This works great too if you add some spirits to it! Rum, Coke, lime jello- frozen Cuba Libre! Sprite, Lemon or Lime jello and Seagrams- frozen 7 and 7, etc... I am so excited! Next I will try a Mojito mixture Love this recipe! Oh and the alcohol in mine are optional! Great to have on hand with or without the alcohol! Thanks Saturn You ROCK! PS: I have also done this with diet soda and jellos- though not as good- it is ok- I just do not care for diet anything! lol

I am actually rating this for my son (age 11) who made this the other day when his friend was coming to spend the day with us. We used raspberry gelatin. I cannot believe how much of it they ate. Almost the whole thing that day. They just raved over it. Well done Saturn! Thanks for the easy recipe.
