Your new favorite New Year’s Eve treat! These Champagne Jello Shots are festive and delicious with the addition of some beautiful edible glitter and fresh raspberries. Feel free to make non-alcoholic too!
Ingredients
Scale
- 36 fresh raspberries
- edible gold glitter
- 12 portion cups with lids (2.5oz each)
- 1 3/4 cups sweet champagne (we used Martini + Rossi Asti), cold + divided
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- (2) .25oz packets unflavored gelatin
- 1/4 cup vodka
Instructions
- Prep Portion Cups: Place 2-3 raspberries in each portion cup. Sprinkle with a pinch of edible glitter. Set aside.
- Bloom Gelatin: Add 1 cup champagne, lemon juice and granulated sugar to a saucepan. Stir to combine. Add unflavored gelatin and stir. Let sit 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
- Heat + Cool Mixture: Place saucepan over medium heat and gently heat until gelatin has dissolved and the liquid is just barely about to start simmering. Remove from heat and place in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to cool. Add remaining 3/4 cup cold champagne to saucepan along with vodka. Gently stir to combine.
- Pour + Refrigerate: Divide equally between the portion cups pouring over the raspberries and glitter. Transfer to the refrigerator and let set for a minimum of 2 hours. Serve with a spoon and enjoy!
Notes
- Portion Cup Options/Alternatives: we only tested these using the portion cups, but I don’t see why these wouldn’t work in other molds. The only issue I foresee with a silicone option is getting the jello out smoothly – let us know if you try something different!
- Portion Cup Size: each portion cup here was 2.5oz, feel free to use something smaller, just know you may not be able to fit as many raspberries in and you will end up with more shots.
- Non-Alcoholic: want to make a batch for the kiddos or someone who doesn’t want to drink alcohol – simply swap out the champagne for sparkling apple juice and add water instead of vodka.
- Sweet Champagne/Asti: we tested this with a Martini + Rossi Asti and the flavor was perfect – if you use a less sweet champagne you may want to add a bit more sugar to account it.
- Storage: store with the caps on the portion cups in the refrigerator.
- Make Ahead: since these have fruit in them, it is best to eat them within 2-3 days of making.
