Drink The Book: Pimm'S No. 1 Cup Jelly Shots Recipe

• 4 strawberries
• 1 orange slice (about 1 inch), coarsely chopped
• 2 large sprigs fresh mint
• 1 (1-inch) piece cucumber, coarsely chopped
• 3/4 cup Pimm's No. 1 Cup
• 6 ice cubes
• 2/3 cup ginger ale
• 2/3 cup lemon syrup (recipe follows)
• 2 envelopes Knox gelatin
• Slivers of cucumber, strawberry, orange, and mint for garnish if desired
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 4 medium lemons, each cut into 8 wedges

1. Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan. Muddle the lemon wedges. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain immediately. Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
2. Muddle fruit together the strawberries, orange, mint, and chopped cucumber in a large cocktail shaker. Add Pimm's and the ice cubes and shake vigorously. Strain liquid through fine mesh strainer and set aside (you should have approximately 2/3 cup of liquid).
3. Combine ginger ale and lemon syrup in saucepan in a medium saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow gelatin to soak for a minute or two. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is fully dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add the reserved Pimm's liquid, stirring well to blend. Pour into pan and chill until fully set, several hours or overnight.
4. To serve, cut into rectangles. To garnish, peel "ribbons" from cucumber using a vegetable peeler. The ribbons should be about 6 inches long for easy handling. Group the slivered fruit and mint as desired, and tie each bundle with a cucumber ribbon. Trim the ribbon ends to desired length. Place a fruit bundle on each jelly shot.
