Strawberry Margarita Mousse

Strawberry Margarita Mousse

1 large (8-serving) package JELL-O Sugar Free Strawberry Gelatin Dessert Mix

2 C. frozen unsweetened strawberries, mostly thawed

1 1/2 C. Cool Whip Free, thawed

1 C. cold Sprite Zero (or any diet lemon-lime soda)

1/4 C. plus 1 tsp. (2 1/2 oz.) tequila

3 tsp. lime juice

In a medium-large bowl, combine gelatin mix with 1 C. boiling water, and stir until completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Set aside. In a blender, combine strawberries, soda, tequila, and lime juice. Puree until smooth. Add this mixture to the bowl with the gelatin mixture and stir thoroughly. Refrigerate for 45 minutes, until slightly thickened but not set. (Do not over-refrigerate.) Using an electric mixer, blend in the Cool Whip. Once mixture appears mostly blended, use a spoon to mix it up from the bottom. If needed, continue mixing until uniform. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, until mostly firm. Enjoy!
