Tips:

Choose the Right Lemon Gelatin: For the best flavor and texture, use high-quality lemon gelatin. Look for brands that use real fruit juice and avoid those with artificial flavors.
Use Fresh Lemon Juice: Fresh lemon juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the Jell-O. If you don't have fresh lemons on hand, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to use 100% lemon juice, not lemon-flavored juice.
Chill Thoroughly: The Jell-O needs to be chilled thoroughly before serving to set properly. Plan on at least 4 hours, or overnight, for the Jell-O to set.
