Carribean Sunset Jell-O
Description
This American beverage features Box Orange Jell-O; or two. The flavors come together beautifully. A reliable recipe that works well for everyday cooking. Simple to make with ingredients you likely already have on hand, this is a recipe you will come back to again and again.Ingredients
Directions
-
small boxes 2 c Boiling Water 1 1/2 c Cold Water 1/2 c Rum; * see noteVariation1 sm Box Orange Jell-O; or Cherry -Jell-O 1 c Boiling Water 1 c Cold Water; (package -directions) * (I used "Cockspur" dark rum from Barbados, West Indies.) Little "souffle cups" or Dixie Cups, Bathroom-size
-
Make up the Orange Jell-O, with the rum, in the usual way.
-
(Dissolve the Jell-O thoroughly in the boiling water, etc.) Distribute into individual servings.
-
Make up the Orange Jell-O without the rum, in the usual way.
-
Distribute into individual servings.
-
Let all of the Orange Jell-O set for about 1-2 hours.
-
(It helps if you mark them specially, or put them in different cups, or on different trays or different refrigerators or something.
-
I put an X on the non-alc.
-
cups.) Mix up the Cherry Jell-O.
-
Let it cool, about half an hour or so.
-
Make sure the Orange Jell-O (both with and without rum) have
-
set enough not to slosh when you wiggle them.
-
Pull a tray out of the fridge (I assume you
-
set the cups on trays!) and carefully
-
pour a little bit of Cherry Jell-O on top of each serving.
-
Just enough to cover them.
-
Then put them back in the fridge, and do the next batch.
-
(Do the rum ones first, then the nonalcoholic.) If you do it just right, there should be enough cherry Jell-O to
-
make a little red
-
layer on top of each orange Jell-O cup.
-
If you miscalculate, well, you'll probably have a bunch of regular ordinary orange Jell-O, and the kids will still be happy with them.
-
(Plus they'll be easier to tell apart.) Put it all back in the fridge,
-
let 'em
-
set ,
-
serve the next day.
-
Voila, you have regular and unleaded (atomic and steam-powered?) versions, and (apart from the rum flavor) they'll be similar.
-
Everyone will be happy.
-
That's the theory, anyway Good luck!
-
I'm taking them to a club meeting tonight, we'll see if it goes over well..
-
NOTES : This makes a large amount of alcoholic Jell-O, and a small amount of matching non-alcoholic Jell-O Recipe by: "C.
