Stars & Stripes Bombs



Prep your silicone shot glass mold generously by using a regular, unflavored baking spray to ensure easy release.  Place upside down onto a paper down to soak up any excess spray. Place mold onto a baking sheet for easy transport back and forth to the refrigerator.  Eating these is a bit of a challenge, so I would suggest just bombing it in your mouth - the buzz will follow momentarily!

Cream Layer
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup sugar
3 envelopes unflavored gelatin
1 tbsp. vanilla-bean paste
1 cup vodka

Place cream, sugar and unflavored gelatin into pan, stir with whisk to combine.  Turn heat below pan to medium and whisk occasionally until gelatin is dissolved and mixture is beginning to steam.  Remove from heat and add vodka and vanilla-bean paste – stirring to combine.  Pour into a liquid measuring cup and fill mold half full, until the 'faceted edge' on the mold.    Place into the refrigerator and allow to chill for 20 minutes.

Blue Layer
1 cup water
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
1-3 oz box Berry Blue jello
1 cup vodka 

Place water and unflavored gelatin into pan, stir with whisk to combine.  Turn heat below pan to medium and whisk occasionally until gelatin is dissolved and mixture is beginning to steam.  Remove from heat and add vodka and flavored jello – stirring to combine.  Using a tablespoon measurer, fill almost full and pour into each well of the mold.  Place into the refrigerator and allow to chill for at least six hours.

Remove from refrigerator and with the mold right-side up, gently squeeze the molds with your fingers to assist them in releasing.  It probably takes a minute to coax each jello shot out of it's mold, but it will eventually slide out effortlessly.  

Fill each glass with Kinky Liqueur and enjoy the explosion!
