But if you're looking for the optimal vodka / jello ratio, you might check out this equally crazy and briliant scienceproject. :) http://www.myscienceproject.org/j-shot.html Champagne sounds fine.

Grapefruits are very easy - limes are nearly not worth the trouble. - The fruit removal is a HUGE pain. Get it started with a spoon, then use your fingers to separate the wedges the rest of the way. (I found the spoon tended to dig through the rind if I went too far with it.) - The reaction that comes from those who haven't put two-and-two together ("How did you get the jello to set in a wedge shape?") is TOTALLY worth it.
