Bourbon Smash Jelly Shots

[Image: 7-com-bourbon-smash-p_jpg.jpg]

1 6-oz. package fresh raspberries, plus additional for garnish (optional)
3 large sprigs fresh mint (about 25 mint leaves)
2/3 cup bourbon
2/3 cup cranberry juice cocktail
1/3 cup limeade concentrate, thawed and strained to remove solids
1/3 cup water
3 envelopes Knox gelatin
2 tsp agave nectar or simple syrup, if desired

1. Recommended pan: molds or 1-lb. loaf pan (approximately 8" x 4")

2. Implements: cocktail muddler, bowls, fine mesh strainer

3. Muddle raspberries and mint leaves in small bowl. Stir in bourbon and set aside.

4. Pour cranberry juice, limeade concentrate, and water into a small saucepan and sprinkle with the gelatin. Allow the gelatin to soak for a minute or two. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

5. Strain the raspberry–bourbon mixture, making sure to press out all the liquid (you should have about a cup of liquid). Stir into the gelatin mixture. Taste; add the agave nectar/simple syrup if desired.

6. Pour mixture into pan or molds and refrigerate until fully set, several hours or overnight.

7. To serve, cut into desired shapes or unmold. Garnish with slivers of fresh raspberry and mint, if you like.

Yield: ABOUT 15 JELLY SHOTS

Why not?

Well, I did a search for "Shooters" to post a link to the threads we've done re shooters and there are 200 of them!! So, forget that idea.

Maybe each of us can repost our favorites??

What I want to know is, where do you get your molds Denise? I mean, these little creations are nothing short of absolute artwork! That's why your Secret Santa got you those tasting cups and spoons and forks!

Big "Aye!" from me, too. Seriously, aside from the interest among the lot of us, it's a book that would probably sell well.

Edit: Just thought of a title: Barkeeping Ballistics: Spectacular Shots and Shooters
If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?
