BEVERAGES
Pour a small pkg of any flavor Jell-o into a bowl Pour in 1 cup boiling water.
Stir to dissolve. Let cool to room temperature.
Add 1 cup vodka. Pour into mold or pan.
Freeze until firm. Cut to individual servings.
Tips:
Use the highest quality ingredients you can.
Any clear spirit will work if you don't care to use vodka.
Use different colored Jell-O for various occasions
(Easy Version)
750 ml bottle of Pinot Grigio
375 ml Peach Schnapps
Cut Fruit – any fruit will work, grapes, oranges, maraschino cherries, its more for the visual
12 oz Clear soda (Sierra Mist, Sprite or Tonic Water)
Pitcher or other container that can hold about 1.5 L
Pour the bottle in the pitcher, add Peach Schnapps, Clear Soda, toss in fruit and stir. Pour over glasses of ice to serve.
(Waiting Version)
The following I mix the wines. If I use Syrah by itself, its too sweet. Pinot Grigio by itself and I have to add sugar so I use both which makes a very large batch. If you want to use just 1 bottle, just use half of the ingredients.
750 ml bottle of Pinot Grigio
750 ml of Syrah
1 1/2 Cups Triple Sec
1 Cup Raspberry Liquor
1 1/2 Cups Orange Juice
16 oz Clear soda (Sierra Mist, Sprite or Tonic Water) add more if needed
4 Lemons
4 Apples
2 Pears
(other fruit can be used too. Sometimes I might add what I find in the fridge)
Container(s) to mix/store
Cut up fruit and place in the container(s) squeezing the lemons over the apples. Add the fluids, stir and let sit 24-48 hours in the refrigerator with an occasional stir the next day or two. Pour over glasses of ice to serve.
I keep the wine bottles to store any that will not be consumed after the 24/48 hours (after removing the fruit). If you let this sit too long with the fruit, it will get a little thick.
