Charming little jars are easy to chill and carry — and they give this picnic dessert a retro-cool vibe.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Pimm's Cup liqueur, divided

  • 2 7-g pkgs gelatin powder, such as Knox

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice

  • 3  1/4 cups lemon-lime soda, about 2 cans

  • 284-mL can mandarin orange segments, drained

  • 1 mini cucumber, diced

  • 1 cup sliced small strawberries

  • 2 tbsp small mint leaves

Instructions

  • BOIL 3/4 cup Pimm’s in a small saucepan set over medium-high. Remove from heat. Whisk in gelatin until dissolved. Scrape into a large measuring cup. Stir in remaining 3/4 cup Pimm’s and lemon juice, then add lemon-lime soda, pouring down side of the cup so it does not foam. 

  • DIVIDE fruit among 6 250-mL glasses or jars. Pour in Pimm’s mixture. Sprinkle with mint. Refrigerate until set, 4 hours.
