How to Make Cherry Coke Jello Salad

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup water, and the juice from one (20 ounce) can of crushed pineapple.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 1 (3 ounce) package cherry Jello and 1 (12 ounce) can of chilled Coca-Cola.
  4. Return to low heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until all the foam disappears, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
  5. Gently stir in one (20 ounce) can of crushed pineapple (reserve some for garnish, if desired).
  6. Pour the mixture into a large bowl or a 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
  7. Garnish with additional crushed pineapple and serve chilled. Enjoy!
