AWESOME! I made these at this year's Halloween party! I mixed a black cherry (and UV Cherry) jello shot with Mondoro sparkling wine. It tasted great and looked really cool!

I think you have to be a jello shot fan to like this drink. I don't like jello shots and thought this drink was gross. Sorry. But what I did do for the kids was make regular jello (red or blue) and add it to Sprite. They loved it!!

Didn't let the jello shots warm up so the jello sank. But still tasty!

Made with Asti Spumante and strawberry lime jello. YUM! The jello came straight out of the freezer and sank- next time I'll try letting it warm up. With the champagne, it's not really a shot, but you have to slurp the jello up a the end unless you shoot it. A lot of guests didn't eat the jello and said it was squishy. But, this was at a bridal shower, and not a very wild crowd. Will definitely make again.

I made these for a valentines Day party and everyone loved them. I made spiked jello and regular jello and set out sprite and champagne. People could choose virgin (sprite & reg. jello) or any combination. The favorite was sprite with the spiked jello. The jello floated better in the sprite than in the champagne, making it possible to get a little jello with each sip. Thanks for a fun drink idea!!!

Very Festive!!!! I made these for Christmas Eve. I made 2 types of Jello shots....Cherry & Melon Fusion....so I had red & green. and i used an inexpensive Cava Brut. I figured with the sweetness of the Jello, a dryer sparkling wine would be better. I did notice larger goblet type glasses seemed to work better than regular flutes for the lava effect....However both looked very nice!!! Will definitely make these again!!!!

Made this for New Year's toast and everyone loved the lava lamp concept. Even our son, the bartender was impressed. Now a tip for novices (like me:0): I used a Trader Joe recommend that was a Cava Brut and learned the hard way that I don't like Brut - which typically is very dry. Maybe this is common knowledge but I had no clue. Some liked it but I did not and think that especially for this specific combo a sweet sparkling wine would be much better. I contemplated dropping in a little cube of sugar to soften the blow but never got around to it. I also screwed up (trying to do to much prep for dinner party) and did not include the vodka in the jello which turned out to be a good thing. That way I was able to make the children Lava Lamps with 7-up (worked like a charm) and for the grown ups we just put a 1/2 pour of vodka on top of the jello before topping off with the bubbly. I would definitely try again with a sweet bubbly. Lots of fun. Cheers!

Let the jello sit at rom temp for just a little bit. It will rise to the top better if it is not fresh from the fridge.

these were a huge hit at my mom's bday party! they only actually look like a lava lamp for the first couple minutes and then the fizz dies down too much to make the chunks of jello go up and down. that is just enough time to enjoy the effect before drinking it though!

This drink was a hit at my party. I made a batch of Watermelon and a batch of Cherry. Everyone loved the Watermelon (said it tasted like a jolly rancher). the Cherry didn't go over so good. They definately sneak up on you. Will surely make this again in watermelon only, and get more than 1 bottle of champagne.

Made for a party we had. They looked great, but didn't taste the best. Maybe it was the champaign. We then tried lemon lime soda, but that was too sweet. Fun, but a waste of good jell-0 shots!

We made these for a party and they were a hit! We added a shot of 7-Up to sweeten them up a bit, then they were perfect. Also worked well with 7-up alone for those who don't care for champagne.

These are alot of fun. The key to keeping it look like a lava lamp is to break the jello shot up really well with a fork. I put it in the flute first, mashed it, then added the champagne, beautiful. Thanks!
