Rainbow Cake Jelly Shots
Ingredients:
- · 1 3/4 cups prepared lemonade
- · 4 envelopes plain gelatin
- · 1 1/4 cups cake flavored vodka (or sub vanilla or whipped cream vodka and a touch of amaretto)
- · 2 tsp sweetened condensed milk (up to 4 tbsp is okay - use to sweeten to taste!)
- · 6 small bowls (one for each color)
- · liquid food coloring
- · frosting and sprinkles, for garnish, if desired
- · flexible silicone mini muffin pan (cavity volume = 3 tablespoons)
Prepare the mini muffin pans by spraying lightly with
cooking spray and then wiping clean with a paper towel. (This will leave a
slight residue which will assist in unmolding without effecting the taste or
appearance of the jelly shots.)
Pour lemonade into a small saucepan and sprinkle with
gelatin. Allow to soak for a minute or two. Heat over low, stirring constantly,
until the gelatin is dissolved (about 5 minutes).
Remove from heat, stir in the vodka and sweetened condensed
milk.
Divide into 1/2 cup portions and pour into 6 separate bowls.
Use liquid food coloring for rainbow colors (in this case: red, orange, yellow,
green, blue, violet). (I wanted a very vibrant rainbow, so used 4 drops of
liquid food coloring for each color. Feel free to amp up the food coloring as
necessary.)
Spoon 3/4 teaspoon of the red gelatin mixture into the
muffin pan cavities. Refrigerate until set, but still sticky when touched. (The
first layer will take 20 minutes or so, subsequent layers will take less time.)
Repeat with remaining colors.
Refrigerate overnight to allow the layers to fully bond.
To serve, loosen around the edges of each muffin cavity and
pop out the jelly shots.

These wonders
Michelle they look great, and will be a big hit for my pride party next year, but I win't wait that long to make my first batch! BTW- the "Lucy Fest" shots here in Jamestown for my party for Lucy's 100th birthday were a smashing success! You rock! Hugs!!
Beautiful, as always! Love the colors in these guys!
Pretty cool....
OH my gosh!!! How do you do it? It's simply fantastic. I really, really love this one. Your work amazes me.
How did you get them to be opaque?? Mine are translucent and the colors are not beautifully defined like those pictured :/ what brand lemonade did you use? Food coloring? How can i make mine opaque? Milk will curdle in the lemon...
i made some of these myself and they turned out great. The timing was a pain in my....uh schedule. they tasted too strong to my family and i so next time i'm going to reduce the amount of the vodka.
How many shots does this recipe make?
