Big Red Kitchen: How to Make Edible Cocktails. Or Jell-O shots. Whichever way you call it, Edible Cocktails are quirky. From seeing them wiggle on the platter, tilting your head back and throwing one down, to licking the stickiness from your fingers, you will agree that these gel cocktails will bring smiles to your guests’ faces. But don’t let these childhood-like treats fool you, they have a bite and will sneak up on you if you have a few too many.

I first saw these on Brilynn’s site Jumbo Empanadas and knew that these would be what I would bring to Himself’s office party the other night. It would be a warm evening by the pool and some silly food would be fun. After doing some gelatin research I discovered that you could pretty much take any cocktail and turn it into an Edible Cocktail by adding one packet (7 grams) Knox Gelatine to every 8 ounces (240 ml) of fluid. Himself and I experimented a bit and found this to be a good ratio. Edible Cocktails: Sangria Mix the first 3 ingredients in a small sauce pan. Be creative and have fun! Unfettered F-U-N . . . Rainbow Jelly Shooter! Rainbow Jelly Shooter Its been a whirlwind at the test kitchen. The book is progressing (crossing fingers that it is going to press in early December!) , we have been working on a little something (three little somethings, actually) for Saveur.com, and about a million more actions items cropping up here and there, many of which have not received appropriate attention and are currently housed in a bin marked "anxiety provoking".

One of the highlights of our week was a lovely chat with Erin over at Tablespoon.com, who mentioned that they were hosting a Double Rainbow Week, which sounded like such fun! (And it IS - featured items include double rainbow . . . donuts! Cookie pops! Bring it on Tablespoon.com!) So, when the weekend rolled around, rather than trolling cocktail books for jelly shot inspiration, we decided it was high time for a bit of unfettered f-u-n . . . I love the "rainbow" gelatin technique - borrowed from the popular recipe for kids' finger gelatin.

Cheers, Michelle Red Layer. The Bramble. Blueberry Martini Jello Shots – NYC | Bionic Bites. Blueberry Martini Jello Shots My friend Chris invited me to a barbecue last weekend, and wanting to be a good BBQ guest like Deb at Smitten Kitchen, I offered to bake a pie. It turns out, though, no one who was attending the BBQ was very excited at the prospect of pie. Who would’ve thunk it?! Geez, how can anyone not like pie? I didn’t want to make regular jello shots though, I mean my college days are far behind me. I made a few modifications to the recipe to make my life easier. The jello shots were a hit at the BBQ, especially amongst the girls. I can’t wait to experiment with these jello shots.

Nutella embodied in a Shot. It’s no secret… I’m a big fan of the Chocolate-Hazelnut flavor combination. So far I’ve used this flavor profile to make these cookies… as well as these… I’ve also used it to frost a cake… to add a little “PZAZZ!” To a cheesecake… And let’s not forget one of the best ways to enjoy this flavor combination, in the form of gelato of course!

Roy G. Biv Smoothies. I’ve had a few requests over the last few weeks for some smoothie recipes because I let it slip that Betsy and I generally just have a big smoothie for breakfast everyday. Turns out our daily smoothie recipe is a mix between yellow, red, and indigo, but that’ll make more sense to you later. Smoothies can be so varied I really struggled for awhile on how to present a wide spectrum of recipes in one post. That was, of course, until I saw a guy riding a bike last weekend with a rainbow sticker on his backpack. When I saw the rainbow I thought, now those would be some awesome smoothies!

Anytime I think of a rainbow, I can’t help but think of the mnemonic device for remembering the order of the colors: ROY G. BIV! After some tinkering, I present to you, the ROY G. Pretty. Each of the recipes I used are below, but before that, there are a few quick notes on smoothies that I think are important. First, smoothies are all about balance. So let’s take a trip through Roy G.

Strawberry Lemonade Recipe | The Family Kitchen. Nothing says spring or summer like a tall glass of lemonade. It’s refreshing, delicious and so very good on it’s own, simple and uncomplicated. But every once in a while, I like to change it up. Here I have added some fresh strawberries to my favorite lemonade recipe. They not only add a punch of flavor, but also natural sweetness.

Frozen Butterbeer for the Deathly Hallows Premiere - Cook Like a Champion. There’s something you might not know about me.

I’m a huge fan of the Harry Potter books and movies. I wasn’t always, but once I watched one movie, I was hooked. I was devastated when I found out Eric and I were moving away from Orlando before Wizarding World of Harry Potter opened at Universal’s Islands of Adventure. Luckily, we were able to fly back over the summer and use our season passes one last time. Even though it was incredibly hot and crowded, it was totally worth it to be able to experience a small part of the Harry Potter world. Walking through Hogsmeade was like being in another country, and I felt totally immersed in it. Butterbeer, for those who don’t know, is a favorite drink of young witches and wizards.
