Sparkling Jell-o

CookinGal said:

I tried to make the sparkling jell-o using ginger ale. I dissolved the
jell-o in 1 cup boiling water, then stirred in 1 cup cold ginger ale
and refrigerated with the lid to the container on. It tastes kindof
carbonated, but I can't see any bubbles in it.

Has anyone had any luck making sparkling jell-o where you can see the
bubbles in it after it's gelled?

You wouldn't see any bubbles. You don't see bubbles in bottled soft
drinks do you? You don't get bubbles unless there's something in the
mix that causes the carbon dioxide to be released. Ice cubes and salt
help create bubbles in soft drinks and beer because they give something
for the bubbles to cling to. Agitation also creates bubbles. If you
really want bubbles in your jello why don't you simply whip it with an
electric mixer and then use a quick set method to make it jell before
the bubbles dissipate.

Lisa, we made jello shooters for DD's wedding using club soda instead of
ginger ale. It worked well.
