Red, White & Blue Jello Salad is a wonderful patriotic dessert with delicious layers of gelatin and fresh fruit. It’s a refreshing treat for a 4th of July picnic. Kids and adults alike will love it.

I’ve never been a huge fan of jello, but this Red, White & Blue Jello Salad is absolutely delicious. The bottom layer is made from berry blue Jello and fresh blueberries. The top layer is raspberry Jello and fresh raspberries. You can substitute strawberries if you like.
My favorite layer is the middle layer, a magnificent layer of sour cream, heavy cream, sugar, and gelatin. The texture of it is to die for. So creamy and rich.

This patriotic salad is super easy to make, but a little time-consuming. You definitely want to make it a day in advance. Each layer needs to set up before you add the next layer.
Be sure to make it in a trifle dish or a glass serving bowl to get the full visual effect. The red, white and blue layers are striking, especially with a mound of whipped topping and berries on top.

You could easily double the recipe to feed a larger crowd. Or you can make it in individual serving sizes. Use either clear plastic or glass cups or bowls.
It’s a great way to celebrate with red, white, and blue!
