Return to refrigerator to dry, then repeat the process with black food coloring to paint the pupils. When the spheres are set, use a cotton swap to paint an iris using food coloring diluted in vodka.
Stir in the condensed milk and rum, then pour into mold according to manufacturer’s directions. Stir to ensure that the gelatin has dissolved.
Allow to soften for a few minutes, then microwave for 30 seconds. In a microwave-safe measuring cup, sprinkle gelatin over coconut milk. Required equipment: sphere ice cube tray (the kind that makes 1″ spheres I used this one), cotton swabs.food coloring (black for the pupils and whatever color you want for the iris).1/4 cup pineapple rum (or flavor of your choice).You just have to make sure that your base is a creamy white liquid to represent the whites of the eyes. I have also used mango rum, and maybe I will try half-and-half with vanilla vodka. I used coconut milk and pineapple rum to give it kind of a piña colada vibe, but you can come up with your own combinations. Once they were set, I used a cotton swab to paint the iris and the pupils with a bit of food coloring diluted in vodka (so that it will evaporate and leave just the color). You will need a sphere ice cube tray to make these. A few online searches brought me to some jello shots decorated like eyeballs, and it gave me the idea to make these jelly eyeballs. I had been looking for candy eyeballs to use as a garnish for a dessert that I had in mind, but I couldn’t find any that looked promising. 6.Ĭhill the tiny shots until the gelatin is completely firm, about 2 hours.With Halloween just a few days away, I have been looking for fun treats to make. Continue until all the shot glasses have floating eyeballs. Try to position it against the front of the glass so it shows through clearly. When the gelatin is thick enough press an eyeball into the middle of the shot glass, you can use a thin knife or spatula to push it down into their gelatin or just use your finger. Just check the glasses regularly and don't be afraid to check the texture with a spoon. Depending on the temperature of your ingredients and your refrigerator this process can take anywhere from 30 to 50 minutes. It shouldn't be super firm but it should be thick enough to suspend an eyeball in the middle of the glass. You want the gelatin to start getting thick like cake batter texture. Refrigerate the shot glasses for about 30 minutes, checking their texture every 10 minutes.
Pour the juice into 16 plastic shot glasses leaving room at the top since you'll be adding eyeballs later 4. Whisk them together then continue gently whisking as you pour the gelatin in. Take caution since you don't want the gelatin mixture to get hot! 3.Ĭombine the remaining grape juice and ginger ale in a large measuring cup or pitcher with a spout. Microwave the bowl for 20 seconds to liquefy the gelatin (if it's not fully liquid and clear after 20 seconds, then microwave in 5-second increments just until melted). Allow gelatin to sit for 10 minutes so it softens and absorbs some of the juice. Sprinkle the gelatin on top and whisk it in. Place 1/2 cup of grape juice in a small bowl.
