Servings: persons

1/4 cups Cold Water
1 package (7 Gram Size) Gelatin
3/4 cups Boiling Water
1 box (85 Gram Size) Lime Jello
1/2 cups Sugar
2 cans (355 ML Size) Lemon-lime Soda (chilled)
1 can (284 ML Size) Mandarin Oranges With Juice
1/4 cups Lemon Juice
5 drops Mint Extract, Optional, Or Fresh Mint Leaves For Garnish
1 whole English Cucumber, Peeled And Diced
1 cup Sliced Fresh Strawberries

1
In a large bowl, place the cold water and sprinkle the gelatin over. Let it sit 5 minutes.
2
Add boiling water, lime Jello mix and sugar into the bowl; stir to dissolve for 2 minutes.
3
Add the soda, mandarin oranges with juice, lemon juice, and mint extract if using. (If the soda is chilled, it will help the jello set faster.)
4
Add the cucumber and strawberries. Divide evenly into 10 clean 1-cup jars, filling about 3/4 full. Chill for 3 hours until set. Garnish with mint leaves if desired.
5
If the fruit is floating, try cooling the mixture until it is just beginning to set. Stir, then divide into jars and chill til set.
6
Of course you could also pour this into a 9x13 pan, let it set and cut into squares. Or use a Jello mold, or any other bowl. Chill for 3 hours until completely set.
