Tips:
- Use fresh ginger. Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger, and it will give your jello salad a more vibrant color.
- Don't overcook the ginger ale. If you overcook the ginger ale, it will lose its flavor and become bitter.
- Use a variety of fruits. The more variety of fruits you use, the more flavorful your jello salad will be. Some good choices include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, and bananas.
- Let the jello salad chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give the jello salad time to set and develop its flavor.
