I just got a somewhat-bizarre phone call about how best to mix jelly and vodka. A spot of quick googling later (yes, take that, I just used it as a verb with­out respect­ing your trade­mark, punks) yielded this inebriation-friendly post from the BBC’s web­site:

The idea of vod­ka­jelly is a sim­ple one: get drunk as quickly as you can, by eat­ing a food most com­monly found at young children’s birth­day parties.

The basic recipe is just that — very basic. Make up a packet of jelly, using between a quar­ter and half of the amount of water sug­gested. Top up with as much vodka as you like (or can handle).

Trust the Brits ;-)

Sounds worth try­ing some­time, though… prob­a­bly not some­thing to leave in a family-friendly fridge, and prob­a­bly not with that sort of ratio… ½ Vodka jelly might be a bit much for those of us who would pre­fer not to get totally sloshed whilst eat­ing dessert.
