MARTINI MONDAY – (enjoy the first evening of the week with a cool cocktail and a easy snack!)
I’ll have a blllluuuueeee Christmas withhhouuuttt youuuu. But you’ll be doing alright with a jello shot that’s just righhhhtttt. Enjoy a blueeeee blueeeee blue blue blue Christmas!
Ingredients
- 3 oz. package of berry blue jello
- 1 cup boiling water
- 3/4 cup Blue Curacao liqueur
- 1/4 cup sparkling champagne
- 1 cup mini marshmallows cut up into fourths
- Plastic portion cups
- Mini blueberry candy canes (optional)
Method
Dissolve the 3 ounce jello packet into the boiling water. Let it sit until it is room temperature. Mix in 3/4 cup blue curacao and 1/4 cup sparkling champagne. Pour 1/2 of liquid into portion cups – only fill each portion cup to 1/2 full. Add one layer of mini marshmallow quarters to each cup. Place Saran Wrap around each cup and wrap with a rubber band securely. Lay each cup horizontally in the refrigerator until the jello is set, about 2 hours. Then, remove the Saran Wrap and fill the other 1/2 of each cup with the rest of the jello/liquor liquid mix. Put each cup back into the refrigerator until completely set (You do not need to add the Saran Wrap to these). Optional: Right before serving, add a blueberry candy cane into the side of each shot.
Get yourself a snack

Beth – it sounds like the perfect drink for Smurfs!
la la la la la la laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa la la la la la laaaaaaaaaaa
hahahaha yes I’m singing my Smurf song!
Hope you had a nice holiday! Did you stuff your bellies?
Beth – Actually, Thanksgiving has ended up being rather on the side side. One of my friends father passed away on Thanksgiving morning; Len is in Tulsa right now because his father passed away last evening at 11pm; and I’m heading to Crown Point, Indiana on Sunday because another one of my friends mother is in hospice care and has asked for me. Thankfully, my dad just got out of the hospital. I’ll be with him in San Diego Dec 16 through Jan 1. Len and I will probably pass each other at the airport – him heading home, and me heading out.
Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry to hear about all of the sicknesses an Len’s Father. You have my condolences. I will be sending loving thoughts your way.
I just tried this over the weekend – thanks for the great recipe!! The only thing I did differently was that instead of blue candy canes I made a blue sugar rim on the glasses/shot glass.
