Note

For a more intense "slime" effect, use a gelatin mold with a textured shape or serve in clear glasses to show off the color.

If you prefer a stronger lime flavor, add the juice of one fresh lime to the mixture.

This dessert should be kept refrigerated until ready to serve. The club soda is best added right before eating to maintain carbonation.

Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved in the boiling water before adding cold liquids to prevent lumps.
