Ingredients
1 box pineapple-flavored gelatin
2 boxes strawberry-flavored gelatin
2 cups boiling water
2 cups chilled Coca-Cola
1 can light table cream (drained of excess liquid)
2 boxes strawberry-flavored gelatin
2 cups boiling water
2 cups chilled Coca-Cola
1 can light table cream (drained of excess liquid)
Where to find ingredients
Find these ingredients at major local food stores or supermarkets in the island's main grocery sections. Table cream (crema de leche) can typically be found in the canned goods or international food aisle. If light cream is unavailable, standard table cream or heavy cream may be used as a substitute, noting that the texture will become slightly richer.
Preparation method
- Dissolve the pineapple gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water and set aside.
- Dissolve both boxes of strawberry gelatin together in 1 cup of boiling water and set aside.
- Add the light cream, the prepared pineapple gelatin, and the chilled Coca-Cola to a blender.
- Blend all ingredients thoroughly until you achieve a perfectly smooth and uniform mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a mold—lightly rinsed with cold water for easy removal—or into individual serving glasses.
- Refrigerate for approximately 3 hours, or until the mousse is thoroughly set and firm.
- Carefully unmold if using a large dish, or serve directly from the glasses, garnishing as desired before serving.
