Recipe from Jelly Shot Test Kitchen: Jell-ing Classic Cocktails-One Drink at a Time by Michelle Palm (Running Press, 2011)

Recommended: 9"x9" square on 9" round

1/2 cup passion fruit nectar
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (strained to remove solids)
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (strained to remove solids)
1/2 cup grenadine
2 1/2 envelopes Knox gelatin
1/2 cup white rum
1/2 cup dark rum
Orange segments for garnish, if desired

Combine the passion fruit nectar, orange juice, lime juice, and grenadine in a medium saucepan and sprinkle with the gelatin. Allow the gelatin to soak for a minute or two. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is fully dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in both rums. Pour mixture into pan and refrigerate until fully set, several hours or overnight.

To serve, cut into desired shapes. Garnish with orange segments, if desired. Makes 24 to 30 jelly shots.
