ingredients:
3 cups very cold rum or vodka, flavored is okay (I put mine in the freezer for a couple hours) 6 teaspoons plain unflavored gelatin 6 3-oz packages of jell-o, we used grape, berry blue, lime, pineapple, orange, and cherry 1 1/8 cup vanilla yogurt water cooking spray Lightly spray bundt pan with cooking spray, wipe out excess. Place 3/4 cup water in saucepan, sprinkle one teaspoon unflavored gelatin over it, let sit for a minute or two, heat on medium-low stirring constantly with whisk until dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add first package jell-o, whisk in until thoroughly dissolved, about 2 minutes, remove from heat, stir in 1/2 cup cold alcohol, pour 3/4 cup jell-o mixture into mold, place mold in refrigerator. After 10-15 minutes place rest of jell-o mixture into bowl, place in refrigerator 5 minutes. Take bowl out, add 3 tablespoons vanilla yogurt and whisk thoroughly, gently add to bundt pan, place back in refrigerator.
Wash all your utensils and start over with next flavor, as the pan chills more and the layers get thinner it will go faster to add next layer, if it feels slightly tacky to the touch it is ready. If it’s not set enough the layers will “bleed” through, it it sits too long the layers will come apart. When you add the last layer refrigerate at least overnight, with clean hands pull jell-o away from the edges of the pan, dip almost to top into a container or sink of warm, not hot, water for 10 seconds, remove and jiggle pan, if it looks like it’s coming away from the edges it’s ready, if not, dip again for a few seconds. Place serving plate upside down over top, invert, and voila.

In my younger years I tried to make many things booze related and failed miserable. My friends were such troopers that they consumed my crap anyway.
I posted the link on FB and my friends told me NOT to try this..LOL I think I have scarred them for life. Good thing they live many miles away from me now. HA HA
I made that! Minus the booze (which sounds like a lovely addition).
My kids saw a picture in a magazine and knew I was assigned the jelly salad for Easter last year so we HAD to make this one.
The kids were good helpers for about the first 2 layers, then I was abandoned with 6 packets of Jello and a tub of yogurt to finish it myself. It ties you to the kitchen forever because you have to wait about 20 min between each layer BUT NO LONGER. If you wait too long then the next layer doesn't stick to the prior layer and the whole thing falls apart when you unmold it (or so the instructions threatened, so I stuck to the 20 min rule religiously).
It looked very impressive. The gray haired set at Easter Dinner was very impressed. My kid wants it for dessert at her next birthday party (minus the booze!). If I have to play hostess to a bunch of 7-year olds maybe I'll make a booze one just for me.
