Total Time 20 minutes
Servings: 16 cubes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 cups sparkling wine
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
  2. Heat the sugar with 1/2 cup of the sparkling wine until the sugar dissolves, then whisk in the bloomed gelatin.
  3. Remove from heat and gently stir in the remaining sparkling wine and lemon juice.
