Ingredients
- 2 (.25-ounce) envelopes unflavored gelatin

Instructions
- Pour the cold water into a medium saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the top. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
- Heat over low heat, whisking constantly, until the gelatin is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Do not boil.

- Divide evenly among 12 (2-ounce) plastic cups, filling each almost full.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely set.

- Garnish each shot with a tiny pink grapefruit wedge.
