Looking for a quick and easy dessert recipe for Labor Day? Below is “Zinfandel Wine Jello Shots” a fun and easy recipe. If you have a bottle of Zinfandel available, you may want to try it. You only need 4 ounces of Zinfandel so you may as well put out some wine glasses and enjoy the rest of the bottle. Just remember to save a glass of wine for the cook!

If you don’t have Zinfandel on hand, you might want to experiment with another red wine. Remember the slogan  “There’s always room for JELL-O?” If you’re interested in discovering the history of JELL-O, check out The JELL-O Gallery in Le Roy, New York.

Title: Zinfandel Wine Jello Shots

Ingredients

1 Small Raspberry Jello Package
1 Small Berry Blue Jello Package
16 oz of boiling water
4 oz of Chumeia Vineyards Zinfandel California
Glass or plastic shot glass cups

Directions

1. Boil the water. After the water has started to boil, remove from stove and measure out 16 oz. Pour the water into a large bowl.
2. Pour each Jello mixture into the bowl of boiling water. Stir until the Jello has completely dissolved.
3. Add the Red Wine to begin setting the Jello. (The Jello will probably take longer to cool because of less water being used than normal. If you would rather the Jello set a little quicker you can add a small amount of cold water.)
4. Pour the entire mixture into shot glasses or little plastic cups.
