Directions: |
Directions:1. In a saucepan sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and allow the gelatin to absorb the water for two minutes. Then bring the water to a boil over high heat while stirring - until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Remove from the heat.
2. Transfer the gelatin mixture to a bowl, add the sugar, and stir until dissolved. Then stir in the champagne and ginger ale.
3. Refrigerate until thickened a bit; check every 20 minutes or so to be sure that the mixture is still partially liquid. Stir in strawberries. Spoon into molds (whatever you want to use - big or small - the smaller the container the firmer the gelatin will be).
4. Unmold and serve. [To unmold, run a knife around the top of the jello and put it in a bath of warm water for 10-20 seconds (be careful here, you don't want to melt the jello). Flip over and shake or give a slight pat to loosen from the container.] |

Notes: Above is the recipe as I took it from .... where-ever I got it from. Here are my customizations:
1. I used 4 envelopes of Knox gelatin - I wanted it to be more rubbery. 2. Champagne was Cupcake Prosecco. Not too sweet or dry. Be sure and get a bubbly wine that you like the flavor of - it will be the predominant flavor of the shot. 3. I only used champagne (replaced the ginger ale with champagne - bottle only has 4 cups in it, so I dumped the whole bottle in). 4. Sugar was the Splenda 50/50 mix. 5. I used about 3 cups of strawberries as well as a cup of blueberries. 6. I used the small (1 oz ?) covered containers (you can get them at party stores), and sprayed them with the coconut oil "Pam" and wiped them out. Made it east to get the shots out of the plastic containers.
