Ingredients:

  • 3 oz peach flavored gelatin
  • 1 cup filtered water, boiling
  • 0.5 cup premium vodka
  • 0.5 cup peach schnapps
  • 18 gummy peach rings

Instructions:

  1. Boil the water. Heat 1 cup of filtered water until it reaches a rolling boil (212°F). Note: Bubbles should be breaking the surface rapidly.
  2. Dissolve the gelatin. Pour the 3 oz peach gelatin into a heat safe bowl and add the boiling water. Whisk 2 minutes until no grains remain.
  3. Cool slightly. Let the mixture sit on the counter for 3 minutes. Smell the intense, floral peach aroma as it blooms.
  4. Measure the spirits. Combine 0.5 cup vodka and 0.5 cup peach schnapps in a separate container.
  5. Temper the mixture. Slowly pour the cold spirits into the warm gelatin base. Note: This prevents the gelatin from setting too quickly or unevenly.
  6. Prepare the cups. Arrange 18 shot cups on a baking sheet for easy transport.
  7. Precision pouring. Fill each cup about 3/4 of the way full. Listen for the soft sizzle of the liquid hitting the plastic.
  8. The first chill. Place the tray in the fridge for 2 hours until the surface is tacky but not liquid.
  9. Add the garnish. Gently press one gummy peach ring onto the top of each shot. Note: Adding them halfway through ensures they don't sink to the bottom.
  10. Final set. Chill for another 2 hours until the gelatin is firm and shatter resistant.
