Shark Tank Jello

 Ingredients: 

 For the Jello: 

• 1 (2 liter) bottle lemon lime soda, flat 
• 4 (1/4 ounce) packages unflavored gelatin 
• 2 drops blue food coloring 

 For the tanks: 

• 26 half pint jars (with a lid) 13 for the shark tank and 13 for the jello to set up in. 
• gummy sharks (I found mine at Walmart) 
• nerds (about 5 boxes)

Instructions:  

For the Jello: 

1. Pour the soda into a large bowl and let it sit on the counter up to 4 hours to become flat. 
2. Once the soda is flat; pour 1 cup of the soda into a bowl; sprinkle the gelatin over the soda and let stand to soften (about 5 minutes). 
3. Pour 2 cups of soda in a small saucepan over medium heat. 
4. Heat until just before a boil. 
5. Add softened gelatin, stiffing to dissolve completely (about 2 minutes). 
6. Pour into the bowl with the remaining soda along with food coloring; stir to combine. 
7. Fill each jar up to the line. 
8. Store in refrigerator until solidified (overnight is best).

For the Tanks: 

1. When ready, run a knife around the edges to release the seal, turn upside down on top of another jar that already has the nerds in the bottom (about 3 jars per box). 
2. Jiggle loose the jello until it starts to move; it will slowly slide down into the jar that is ready to become a shark tank. 
3. Once the jello is in place; make a slice in the jello with a sharp knife and insert the gummy shark. 
4. You may also add candy shaped fish.
