Ingredients

    1. 2 cups cranberry juice cocktail ( or cran-raspberry is good)
    2. 1 (6 ounce) packages red Jell-O ( black cherry or raspberry is what I love)
    3. 1 1/2 cups club soda
    4. 1/4 cup creme de cassis ( I've never used but someday....) (optional)
    5. 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
    6. 3 cups assorted blueberries or 3 cups raspberries or 3 cups sliced strawberries

Directions

  1. Stir boiling cranberry juice (heat in pan) into gelatin in large bowl at least 2 minutes (until well dissolved).
  2. Stir in club soda, liqueur, and lemon juice.
  3. Refrigerate about 1-1/2 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites-I set my bowl inside a larger bowl of ice water and it takes about 20 minutes).
  4. Stir in 2 cups of the berries.
  5. Spoon into 5-cup mold.
  6. Refrigerate about 4 hours or until firm.
  7. Unmold and top with remaining 1 cup of berries in center.
