Step 1: In a bowl, combine 1 cup of boiling water with the red Jello powder. Stir until dissolved and let cool for 5 minutes.
Step 2: Pour the red Jello into the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass dish or a trifle bowl. Refrigerate for about 1 hour or until completely set.
Step 3: While the red layer sets, prepare the white middle layer. In a small bowl, dissolve the unflavored gelatin in 1/2 cup of cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Step 4: Heat 1/2 cup of boiling water and add the bloomed gelatin, stirring until dissolved. Stir in 14 oz of sweetened condensed milk and 1 cup of cold water. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Step 5: Once the red Jello is set, pour the cooled white gelatin mixture gently over the red layer. Refrigerate for another hour or until set.
Step 6: In another bowl, combine 1 cup of boiling water with the blue Jello powder. Stir until the Jello dissolves and let cool for 5 minutes.
Step 7: Once the white layer is set, gently pour the blue Jello over the white layer, ensuring even distribution. Refrigerate for 1 more hour or until completely firm.
Step 8: Once set, slice into squares or scoop into glasses for serving. Optionally, top with whipped cream and fresh berries for garnish.
