Level up your celebrations with these bright, bubbly, and perfectly pop-able champagne jello shots! Slightly sweet and delightfully effervescent these little bites are perfect for a crowd.
3cupschampagne or sparkling wine(or one standard 750 milliliter bottle which is 25 ounces)
½ounceunflavored gelatin(or 2 envelops of Knox unflavored gelatin)
½cupgranulated sugar(or less, to taste)
Instructions
Lightly coat a 9x9 square baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large measuring cup (such as a 4-cup measure), slowly add ½ cup of champagne and sprinkle the gelatin over the top (going slowly helps to retain the bubbles in the wine). Allow the gelatin to bloom for 5 minutes.
While the gelatin blooms, add another ½ cup champagne and ½ cup granulated sugar to a small saucepan. Set over low heat and cook until sugar is just dissolved, about 5 minutes. Stir only occasionally, as you want to retain the bubbles of the wine.
While the champagne syrup is quite warm but not too hot, pour over the bloomed gelatin. Stir slowly, until the gelatin is fully dissolved.
Pour the remaining 2 cups (or the rest of the bottle of champagne) into the gelatin mixture, mixing until well combined.
Slowly pour the champagne jello into the prepared pan (I like to rest a spoon on the edge and pour over so as to avoid losing bubbles).
Chill in fridge until shots are set, at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
When ready to serve, coat a sharp knife in cooking spray and cut into squares. Enjoy!
