Sparkling Berry Jello Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups cranberry juice cocktail (or cran-raspberry is good)
1 (6 ounce) package red Jell-O (black cherry or raspberry is what I love)
1 1/2 cups club soda
1/4 cup creme de cassis (I've never used but someday....) (optional)
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
3 3 cups raspberries or 3 cups sliced strawberries

Preparation

Stir boiling cranberry juice (heat in pan) into gelatin in large bowl at least 2 minutes (until well dissolved).
Stir in club soda, liqueur, and lemon juice.
Refrigerate about 1-1/2 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites-I set my bowl inside a larger bowl of ice water and it takes about 20 minutes).
Stir in 2 cups of the berries.
Spoon into 5-cup mold.
Refrigerate about 4 hours or until firm.
Unmold and top with remaining 1 cup of berries in center.
