Ingredients

Makes about 16

2 envelopes unflavored powdered gelatin (about 5 teaspoons)
1 cup vodka
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup simple syrup
1/4 cup Campari
2 teaspoons Angostura bitters
1 3/4 cups fresh blood orange juice, divided
  1. Step 1

    Soak gelatin in 1/2 cup cold water in a small bowl 10 minutes.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, stir vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, Campari, bitters, and 1 1/4 cups blood orange juice in a large measuring glass.

    Step 3

    Heat gelatin mixture and remaining 1/2 cup blood orange juice in a small saucepan over low, stirring to dissolve gelatin; add to vodka mixture. Strain into 2-oz. plastic cups; chill until set, at least 6 hours and up to 5 days.
