How to Make Ginger Pineapple Jello Mold

  1. Drain one 20-ounce can of crushed pineapple, reserving the juice in a measuring cup.
  2. In a large bowl, sprinkle 1 (3 ounce) package of unflavored gelatin over 1 cup of boiling water. Stir for at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
  3. Add enough ginger ale to the reserved pineapple juice to create 1 ¼ cups of liquid.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon of ground ginger into the pineapple juice and ginger ale mixture.
  5. Pour the pineapple juice/ginger ale/ginger mixture into the dissolved gelatin and stir to combine.
  6. Refrigerate for 1 ¼ hours, or until the mixture begins to thicken slightly (it should resemble melted ice cream).
  7. Stir in the drained crushed pineapple.
  8. Pour the mixture into a 5-cup mold.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
  10. Carefully unmold and serve. For a summer twist, add 1 cup of blueberries along with the pineapple (omit the ground ginger for this variation).
