Preparation

Step 1

In medium saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1 cup cran-rasp berry juice; let stand 1 minutes. Stir over low heat until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. Stir in sugar until dissolved.

In large bowl, blend remaining 1 cup cran-raspberry juice, soda, gelatin mixture, liqueur, lemon juice and orange peel. Chill, stirring occasionally, until mixture is consistency of unbeaten egg whites; about 60 minutes. Fold in berries. Pour into 6 cup mold or bowl; chill until firm, about 3 hours. Unmold and serve, if desired, with sour cream.
