1

Spray a nonstick Bundt pan or Jell-O™ mold pan with nonstick oil spray. With a clean paper towel, wipe any excess oil from the edges and the bottom of the pan.
2

GRAPE LAYER: In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 of the grape gelatin powder and 1/4 cup boiling water until gelatin is dissolved. Slowly whisk in 3/4 cup vodka. Pour into the prepared pan. Refrigerate until firm, about 30-60 minutes.
3

In a clean bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 of the grape gelatin powder and 1/4 cup boiling water until the gelatin is dissolved. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup vodka and 1/4 cup sour cream. Spoon on top of the purple layer and refrigerate just until firm.
4

LIME LAYER: In a clean bowl, whisk together 1/2 of the lime gelatin powder and 1/4 cup water until the gelatin is dissolved. Slowly whisk in 3/4 cup cake-flavored vodka. Refrigerate until firm.

In a clean bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 of the lime gelatin powder and 1/4 cup water until the gelatin is dissolved. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup vodka and 1/4 cup sour cream. Refrigerate until firm.

LEMON LAYER: In a clean bowl, whisk together 1/2 of the lemon gelatin powder and 1/4 cup water until the gelatin is dissolved. Slowly whisk in 3/4 cup cake-flavored vodka. Refrigerate until firm.
7

SERVING: Before serving, dip the cake pan into a hot pan of water (or if pan edges are smooth and not fluted, run a knife gently along the edge of the pan to loosen the gelatin mold from the pan sides). Turn mold upside-down onto a serving platter. Chill until ready to serve.
