Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 2 packets Unflavored gelatin
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Sparkling wine (chilled)
- 0.25 cup Vodka (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Edible glitter or gold sprinkles (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest (for garnish)
Instructions
Pour 1 cup of orange juice into a medium saucepan and sprinkle 2 packets of unflavored gelatin evenly over the surface. Let sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
Place the saucepan over low heat and gently whisk until the gelatin is completely dissolved (about 2-3 minutes). Be careful not to let the mixture boil.
Add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to the saucepan and stir until dissolved. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Slowly add 1 cup of chilled sparkling wine to the orange juice mixture, stirring gently to combine and preserve the bubbles.
If desired, add 1/4 cup of vodka for an extra boozy kick and stir to incorporate.
Divide the jello mixture evenly among 12 small shot glasses or silicone molds. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of edible glitter or gold sprinkles on top of each shot for a festive touch.
Transfer the shots to the refrigerator and let them set for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, garnish each jello shot with a small pinch of freshly grated orange zest to enhance the citrus aroma and presentation.
Serve chilled and enjoy responsibly!
