Hello Ashley!

Happy New Year to YOU!

Thank you for your question about the Sparkling Charm Jello Shots. VERY HELPFUL! This is an oversight on my part from a recent post update.
I edited the recipe.

2 tablespoons (1 ounce) fresh lemon juice, cold
4 ounces simple syrup, cold (equal parts sugar and water dissolved)
2 packets gelatin
8 ounces champagne, prosecco, sparkling wine, or cava (Pick a favorite!)
4 ounces vodka (I prefer Tito’s)
sparkle star sprinkles or edible gold leaf

Love + Joy + A Whole Lot Of Sparkle in 2023

Thank you again! -gwyn

One question, how do you serve these to the guests? Do they partake with their bare hands? Does it get mushy in their hands. Just trying to figure that part out. I love the idea of serving on silver tray when guests walk in, but am stumped on how they eat it. Sorry for my naïveté! Thank you!

Niri! HI There!

You can add your favorite champagne.

You can make them ahead on the same day as party.

Let me tell you what I do.

I usually make a double batch. I place them on our entry table (one for each guest) at the beginning of a party as guest arrive. They are a hit and get the fun started right off the bat. …OR RIGHT THROUGH THE DOOR. ? If someone doesn’t partake, there is always a volunteer to have a double. I pull the second tray out in the middle of the party just before serving.

Jello unfortunately cannot be left out at room temperature. Hot temperatures will separate the gelatin from the water resulting in a loss in consistency. They alcohol kills the bacteria, however mocktail jello shots will grow bacteria rapidly on the gelatin.

Wishing you blessings in 2022 Niri! -gwyn

Couple of questions, can I replace the vodka with the same amount of Champagne? Second question can I make this a day ahead of time?

Thank you.

That is a great question. I will add the answer to the post. 🙂

Thanks for the recipe. Do you know how long these can be out of the fridge for? They would look great set up on the table but don’t want them to loose their shape or would they be fine?

Thanks 🙂

Hello Madelyn! I love your name! So pretty.
I have not tried this recipe with flavored gelatin. It might be fun to try a white grape jello and replace the liquids with champagne, prosecco, or moscato. I would bet that is tasty! If you try it let me know how it turns out. …AND SEND ME PHOTOS! Madelyn, thank you for your question. I wish you blessings and good cheer in 2021! PS Careful eating the leftovers from the cutouts. They are delicious and will sneak up on you. PS Another Sparkling Charm friend add rosemary to the dough, places the dough in an olive oil brushed cast iron skillet, and tops it with flaked salt.

Mindy!
PS When I went in to add a link for you I realized “3 packets” is unclear! Thank you! I changed that too!

Hello Mindy!
Happy New Year! Each gelatin packet contains about 1/4 ounce each. They can be tricky to find at the grocery store. I find them on the baking isle usually on a top shelf in a small box. I added an amazon link for you in the recipe ingredients. Have a wonderful day! -gwyn
