How to Make Super Cherry Cola Float

In a medium bowl, sprinkle the cherry gelatin over 1 cup of boiling water. Let it sit for 2 minutes to bloom.
Stir the gelatin mixture continuously until completely dissolved.
Stir in 1 cup of cherry cola until well combined.
Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes, or until the mixture begins to thicken slightly.
Divide the gelatin mixture in half. Set aside 1/2 cup of the thickened gelatin mixture.
Place 1/2 cup of vanilla ice cream into each of four tall glasses.
Top each glass with the remaining thickened gelatin mixture.
In a separate bowl, beat the reserved 1/2 cup of gelatin mixture with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
Spoon the fluffy gelatin mixture on top of the other gelatin layer in each glass.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely firm.
Garnish each float with a maraschino cherry and sprinkles before serving.
