Valentine Strawberry Champagne Shots (Printable Version)

Sparkling strawberry and champagne jello shots, chilled and garnished for festive occasions.

# What You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - 1 cup champagne or sparkling wine
02 - 1/2 cup cold water
03 - 1/2 cup strawberry puree from fresh or frozen strawberries
04 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
05 - 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin

→ Garnish

06 - 6 fresh strawberries, sliced
07 - Edible glitter or gold sprinkles, optional
08 - Whipped cream, optional

# Directions:

01 - In a small saucepan, combine cold water and gelatin. Let sit undisturbed for 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom and absorb the liquid.
02 - Place the saucepan over low heat and stir constantly until the gelatin dissolves completely. Do not allow the mixture to boil.
03 - Stir the granulated sugar into the dissolved gelatin until fully incorporated. Remove the saucepan from heat.
04 - In a mixing bowl, combine the strawberry puree and champagne. Slowly whisk in the warm gelatin mixture, stirring until fully incorporated and no lumps remain.
05 - Divide the mixture evenly among 18 shot glasses or silicone molds, filling each to the top.
06 - Refrigerate for a minimum of 3 hours, or until the gelatin is completely set and firm to the touch.
07 - Top each shot with a fresh strawberry slice and a small dollop of whipped cream. Add a sprinkle of edible glitter or gold sprinkles if desired. Serve directly from the refrigerator.
