If you're planning on having a fun and festive summer party this season, why not try making these yummy jelly shots to serve to your guests? These delicious [gelatin drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelee) swap out harsh liquors for the delicate taste of [sweet champagne](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veuve-clicquot-unveils) and fresh rhubarb.

To make these refreshing jelly shots, begin by boiling fresh rhubarb with sugar and water to create a fruity syrup. The syrup is added to a champagne, gin, lemon and gelatin mixture to create a deliciously boozy rhubarb float that has a sparkling carbonated taste thanks to the champagne. These jelly shots don't contain any added color, artificial flavors or chemicals so they're a little bit better for the body than your typical technicolor college dorm room Jell-O shot.
