Lava Lamps

Cocktail - Drinks

Me and my friends made this up during a party we gave about 10 or so years ago. We were drinking champagne and shooting gelatin shots. We chunked up a gelatin shot and added some to a glass of champagne. A few years later I mentioned this idea to some guests at the restaurant where I was bartending. About 3 months later a local bar was advertising these drinks.

1 (3 ounce) package red or blue colored instant Jell-O® mix

1 cup boiling water

1 cup vodka

1 (750 milliliter) bottle champagne

Grasshopper Cocktail

Drinks

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl stir together the gelatin mix and boiling water until completely dissolved about 2 minutes. Stir in vodka. Pour the liquid into small paper cups or portion cups. Chill until set at least 2 hours.

Step 2

Pour champagne into glasses. Break up the gelatin with a fork and pour into a glass of champagne. A little stir gives it some 'lava' action. Drink with caution these will sneak up on you.
