In a large bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water. Stir in the cola and chill for about 45 minutes. Stir in the chopped walnuts and cherries. Divide the mixture among 6 to 8 parfait glasses; cover and chill for 2 to 3 hours, or until set. When ready to serve, top each with a dollop of whipped topping. Serve garnished with the straws (just for fun). These look pretty seved in old fashioned ice cream soda glasses.
Note* For even more cherry flavor, use cherry cola in place of regular cola. You can also use either diet or caffeine free soda too.
