Gelatin
- 4 oz gelatin powder
- 2 drops lime green gel food coloring
Garnish
- Whipped cream

Instructions
- Dissolve Gelatin: Add the gelatin powder to the hot water and stir until fully dissolved. Set aside and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature but not to set.

Notes
- Use lime-flavored vodka for a more pronounced lime taste.
- Ensure gelatin is fully dissolved to avoid grainy texture.
- Do not add alcohol to hot gelatin mixture; wait for it to cool to maintain alcohol potency.
- Red candy hearts add a charming holiday touch but can be substituted with other fun toppings.
- Keep refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain firmness.
