So… I love cherry Coke. And cherry Diet Coke. And Jell-O is pretty awesome too, right? Especially in the summertime. Well, as it tuns out, you can substitute Coke or Cherry Coke (or Pepsi, if you swing that way) for the water in the standard Jell-O recipe, annnnnnnd….. VOILA! I actually followed the recipe for Jell-O “jigglers” on the box instead of just the plain old Jell-O, because I thought these little cubes would look awesome for photos. But you could follow either set of instructions on the box using the Cola substitution, and it would turn out tasting great! Now…. just think of the possibilities! Or don’t, and I can point them out for you: *See Orange Swizzle See? So much fun! And you can easily sub in diet soda and sugar free Jell-O for a low sugar, low cal treat! Just follow the instructions on the Jell-O box (but not the quick-set recipe calling for ice cubes), subbing the exact amount of soda for water, and you’ll be just fine. I’ve made this a few times in different variations, and we LOVE it (speaking of which, check out these Sparkling Cider Jell-O shots, so festive)! This particular version is SO SIMPLE because it’s literally just subbing the soda for the water in the recipe. Nothing else! So be creative, and mix things up a bit. This recipe is a ton of fun! (PS- the recipe I’m including in this post is for JIGGLERS. Feel free to use the other “normal” recipe on the box if you’d rather; it’s a tiny bit less work).

Nothing beats Cherry Coke in the summer! Reminds me of hot days at the beach. Can’t wait to try this! Reply
I absolutely adore Jell-o jigglers made with pop!!! Here is the funny thing…I just made a version of these earlier this week too. Great minds definitely think alike! Reply
What a clever recipe! Now I have a major craving for cherry coke! Definitely trying this one out! Reply
Oh, how I LOVE Cherry Coke! Such a fun flavor for Jello — beats the same ol’ orange, lime and cherry! Reply
I have been making this for years and you will also find that it’s very good when you add some ice cream.. I usually do the ice cream mixed in when i am having company and it’s my salad served on a big lettuce leaf. I usually do it with something heavy such as lasagna or chicken divan. I am in my 80’s and been collecting recipes for many years and now have over 100,000 of them from friends , relatives and neighbors dating back to the depression. . Two chefs in the family, my mom being one of them growing up on a farm with 9 kids. Try it with the ice cream mixed in, you won’t be disappointed. Reply
Oh yes, another Coke treat I can eat. Funny I should find this now as I’ve got a coke campaign I need to do and I was wondering what coke treat I could make. It’s like a match made in heaven. However, I’m pretty sure we don’t have cherry jelly (jello) here. I guess I’ll have to use unflavoured gelatine and use LorAnne’s cherry flavouring with it and the Coke. Thanks for the inspiration, Ashton. Reply
This sounds delicious! I want to try the orange swizzle! I’d love for you to link this up to my Feature Friday Link Party:> Danielle @ Blissful & Domestic http://www.blissfulanddomestic.com Reply
Just made these! They are cooling in the fridge. I boiled the coke on the stove top as no microwave. Reply
