Preparation

1. In a medium saucepan over high heat, boil 1 cup lemon-lime soda.
2. Sprinkle 4 packets gelatin in a large bowl and whisk in boiling soda. Whisk for 5 minutes, or until gelatin is completely dissolved.
3. Pour in remaining 2 cups soda, then add in desired amount of blue food coloring. Stir until fully incorporated and desired color is achieved.
4. Place a small handful of jelly beans into 4 mason jars or clear bowls. This will be your rocky ocean bottom.
5. Divide jello mixture into mason jars. Optional: strain mixture into jars to reduce air bubbles.
6. Place mason jars in refrigerator and let set for 4 hours.
7. Remove mason jars from refrigerator and use a small paring knife to cut a pocket into the gelatin. Gently push 1-2 Swedish fish into jello.
8. Return to refrigerator to set for another 1 hour, or serve immediately. Enjoy!
