I recommend about two ounces of vodka for each 6-8 ounces of mix. ![]() So let people add their own vodka to each glass. The vodka and tomato juice are different densities and if they sit awhile, they might separate out which could leave some drinks really weak and some dangerously strong. One note on this fish bowl idea: I do not recommend adding the vodka into the fish bowl with the mix. Foraged Eatery chef and owner Chris Amendola holds some ingredients he foraged from a forest to use in her restaurant. This will keep the mixture really nice and cold. As people ladle out their mix, they can fish for their favorite garnishes!įor this recipe, a one-gallon fish bowl is plenty big and will leave you room for lots of ice as well. I add in loads of pickle spears, olives, spicy peppers, celery sticks, and crispy bacon strips. The other fun part about serving everything in a fish bowl is you can really pack it full of garnishes. ![]() I gave rough guidelines in the recipe, but feel free to customize to your liking. Try to use good tomato juice and go heavy on the add-ins. If you’re feeding a crowd it’s fun to make the mix in a big fish bowl and let people scoop out the mix on their own (plus any fun garnishes they can find floating around). So I like to make my own mix, spiked with lots of hot sauce, horseradish and Worcestershire sauce. But most mixes I find to be a kind of bland, especially after you mix them with ice and vodka. The Bloody Mary is one of my favorite brunch drinks (and really the only time I find tomato juice to be worthwhile). You’ll want to use a sharp knife and BBQ skewer to adjust them properly.Serve a batch at a time in a fish bowl and get your party swimming! Our fishbowl cocktail cups have a knack for. Serve your favorite cocktail in a fishbowl and watch how it becomes a conversation piece with a lasting impression. They are the best way to serve signature beverages and make them memorable. Oh, and when you want to add your fish…make sure your gelatin is firm for at least 6 hours. Fishbowls are a very inexpensive and a versatile method to spice up any cocktail or drink. My best advice is to have patience, and not add the marshmallows until your gelatin is cold but not fully set. Oh, and those two fish you see at the bottom of the “sea” those things legit sank faster than my heart when I see my electric bill. Most of them melted with the hot liquid, hence the cloudy look, and yes they floated to the top. Those bubbly marshmallows? I thought they’d stay at the bottom of the sea. This project was quite the adventure and almost was a Pinterest Fail. However, don’t let these cute photos fool you. Anyhow, I thought it would be perfect for Jello-Shots eventually, but when I came across this Vodka Gelatin Fish Bowl is really caught my eye, and I had to make it. ![]() I loved their Red Fish flavor but I couldn’t find that at our local store so this was the next best flavor. I loved Finding Nemo even though it was kinda sad.what can I say? I am a total movie sap! Anyhow, since the New Years, I’ve had this bottle of Pinacle Vodka Red Licorice staring at me. Sure, my kids are excited to see Finding Dory too, and I guess I am sorta happy too. I figured the soon to be released Finding Dory was a good excuse to have some adult fun! I did not use her recipe because I wanted to make something fun for the adults, but I did like the idea. I was surfing the net for a good tutorial on how to make gelatin fish bowls and came across one on Martha Stewart that inspired me. With the Summer unofficially started and the warm weather here to stay (hopefully) I am all about refreshing drinks, and fun party ideas.
