Someone to Watch Over Me . . .

I always feel like . . . someone's watching me.  

Oh, silly me, it's just a gaggle of Blueberry-tini Jelly Shots!

Happy Halloween everyone!  Yes, I know . . . Eyeballs.  Again.  We did eyeballs last year, yes.  However one of JSTK's wonderful, adorable followers supplied a tip to make them ever so easy - using blueberries as the "pupil" of each eyeball rather than the "cut and paint" method of days gone by.  That, and there's a fab new Blueberry-tini Jelly Shot recipe to share.  So clearly, eyeballs needed another Halloween go!

Halloween Remix - Polyjuice Potion

Polyjuice Potion Gelatin - set a cutesy little mold, garnished with smiling gummy worms . . .

Here's a quick remix of our old pal, Polyjuice Potion Jelly Shot.  And this one's non-alcoholic, for the kiddlos.  Looking for something more, well, BOOZETASTIC?  Don't fuss - just click here for the alcoholic version!

Batty . . .

News flash - a flock of glowing vodka tonic bats is headed your way ! 

We've gone absolutely batty.  Why, you ask?  Well, for starters, these cute little Vodka Tonic Jelly Shot bats would put anyone over the edge!  The best part - no fancy schmancy chemical agents or additives are required for this little trick.  Quinine, the active ingredient in tonic water, naturally glows under black light!  (Oh, the wondrous things one learns on the InterWeb.) 

Gumball Jelly Shot

Who's that with the gorgeously ghoulish toothy grin?  Why it's Gumball Jelly Shot, of course!

Happy Halloween-ish weekend everyone!  I'm celebrating with a candy-themed jelly shot and a cheery little skull mold.  Actually, its a silicone ice cube tray - here's the link - manufacturer is Wilton, and it was stocked at my local craft store (and probably is at yours too!).  Link here. . .

The recipe was initially for a Black Gumball Jelly Shot, based on bubblegum vodka a touch of black Sambuca liqueur.  During testing, it came to my attention that a black gumball is a love-it-or-hate-it affair.

Halloween Remix - Candy Corn Jelly Shot Mold

Candy Corn Jelly Shot Mold . . .  sweet mercy . . . so cute, so devour-able!  

Hello!  It's been a while.  Missed you all sooooo much!  Things have been a bit of a whirlwind.  And, unfortunately I accidentally locked Intern Doug in the Test Kitchen pantry on my way out, so he's been indisposed as well.  (Oh, stop - he's absolutely fine - those test kitchen shelves are well stocked to say the least!)
