Harvey Wallbanger Pie

Harvey Wallbanger ain't a person ya'll!!!!
It is actually the name of a mixed drink.  It was (reportedly) part of a marketing strategy  from the 1960's to promote  the liqueur (Galliano) in the drink.

However......I think of it as a "term of expression", that means powerful, strong or having that extra umph!  I think this recipe will deliver.  What do you think?

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup water
2 tsp lemon juice
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten

AND:
1/3 cup Galliano
3 tbs vodka
3 egg whites
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup whipping  cream
1 (9-inch) pastry shell, baked and cooked

In medium saucepan combine gelatin, sugar and salt.  Add orange juice, water, lemon juice and egg yolks.  Mix well.  Cook and stir until gelatin dissolves and mixture is slightly thickened.  Cool and add Galliano and vodka.  Chill until partially set.

  Beat whites and gradually add sugar. Beat until stiff peaks form. Fold into gelatin mixture.  Whip the cream until stiff, and fold into mixture.  Chill until mounds form when dropped from spoon.  Pour into pie shell and chill until firm.  4-5 hours.
