Lemon Ginger Fizz

Directions

1. Place the gelatin sheets in a bowl, cover with cool water and soften for 5 minutes.
2. Heat the simple syrup and ginger in a small saucepan over medium-high heat to just a boil.
3. Remove from the heat. Squeeze the water from the gelatin sheets and place in the simple syrup, stirring to dissolve the gelatin. Set aside.
4. In a large bowl, combine the vodka, lemon zest, and soda water, mixing to combine. Add the gelatin and simple syrup mixture and stir briefly to combine.
5. Pour the mixture into a plastic wrap-lined, extra large straight sided pan (or two, if you don’t have an extra large pan) and cover. (A hotel pan with 2 1/2-inch sides is ideal.)
6. Place in the refrigerator to allow the gelatin to completely set, preferably overnight.
7. To serve, unmold the gelée onto a parchment-lined half sheet pan, remove the plastic wrap and cut into desired shapes.
