I made this today for a luncheon salad. It worked out very well and all enjoyed. You could taste the pineapple and cranberry sauce but don't feel the ginger ale added any value to it. Also, you need to use a mixer when adding the cranberry sauce to make sure their arn't any lumps. Also, for the cream cheese and whipped cream. Would be a good xmas salad with lime jello. Actually, any combination of jello and fruit would work.
