This is an impressive and eye catching make-ahead dessert, just like your favourite cocktail.

Ingredients (7)

  • 1 cup (220g) caster sugar
  • Juice of 3 oranges
  • 200ml Campari
  • 8 gold-strength gelatine leaves (see notes)
  • 2 oranges, peeled, white pith removed, segmented
  • Orange or vanilla ice cream, to serve
  • Candied orange zest (optional), to serve

Method

  • 1.
    Begin this recipe a day ahead.
  • 2.
    Line a 400ml bar pan with plastic wrap. Place the sugar and 1 cup (250ml) water in a saucepan over low heat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring until sugar dissolves. Transfer syrup to a jug with the orange juice and Campari, then add enough water to make 1L (4 cups) liquid. Return to the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
  • 3.
    Meanwhile, soak the gelatine in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes, then squeeze out the excess water.
  • 4.
    Stir the gelatine into the Campari liquid until melted and combined, then strain through a sieve into a jug. Pour into the lined pan and chill overnight to set.
  • 5.
    Invert the jelly onto a board, then cut into small squares. Serve with orange segments, scoops of ice cream and candied zest, if using.
