Make Red Wine Jello Shots

Red wine combined with citrus gelatin makes a Jello shot that is reminiscent of red wine punch or even sangria. Try a sweeter variety of red wine for a better flavor combination. A red table wine or a semisweet wine will deliver great taste in this Jello shot recipe.

Ingredients

Servings: About 10

  • 1 3-oz. (85 g) package lemon gelatin
  • 1 3-oz. (85 g) package orange gelatin
  • 2 cups water, boiling
  • 4 oz. (120 ml) red wine

Steps

  1. Combine the lemon gelatin, orange gelatin and boiling water. Whisk the mixture until all of the gelatin dissolves.
  2. Add the red wine, whisking until well combined.
  3. Pour the shots into plastic shot glasses. Pour 2 ounces (60 milliliters) of the gelatin mixture per glass.
  4. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours or until set.

Tips

  • If you want to use a stronger wine, like a cabernet sauvignon, choose Jello with stronger flavors, like raspberry and blueberry, instead of lemon and orange.
  • Look for some elegant plastic cups to serve your red wine Jello shots in. This will give your presentation a more sophisticated look. Also try serving in wine glasses to give an even better presentation.
