Merlin is my companion and my familiar. So, I figured that his name should be the title of this Witch's room. I'm going to post spells, both new and well used ones, and all kinds of information on the craft. I'm a 5th generation Witch, so I have a lot of older learning that I would love to pass on. Come in, have a cup of tea, pet my cat, and maybe learn something along the way

Wine Jello Shots!!!!!!
Wine Jello Shots; because real women are classy, when they are being trashy
Ingredients
5 tablespoons cold water
3 packages unflavored gelatin (about 3 tablespoons total)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1 cup orange muscat dessert wine
1 1/4 cups Sauternes or similar sweet wine
1 each grapefruit, blood orange, navel orange, tangerine, and Meyer lemon, or another combination
Directions
1.Combine 5 tablespoons cold water and gelatin in a bowl. Let stand 5 minutes.
2.Combine sugar, 1/2 cup water, and wines in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until sugar has dissolved. Add gelatin mixture, and whisk until melted. Cook 1 minute. Remove from heat, and pour through a fine sieve into a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Let cool completely.
3.Cut peel and pith from citrus. Cut each segment from membranes, then cut horizontally into 1/8- to 1/4-inch-thick slices (you will need 1 cup). Arrange in a single layer over gelatin mixture. Refrigerate, uncovered, overnight.
4.To unmold, run a knife around edge of dish. Using an offset spatula, gently coax gelatin from sides. Invert and turn out onto a cutting board. Trim edges, and cut into 1 1/4-inch squares. Serve immediately, or refrigerate, uncovered, up to 1 day.
Makes about 4 1/2 dozen
