- Bloom Gelatin Precisely: Sprinkle gelatin over cool water, wait exactly two minutes, then heat until fully dissolved to create a perfect binding agent.
- Blend Liquids Smoothly: Whisk Rum Chata into melted sherbet gently, then incorporate cooled gelatin with careful, uniform stirring to prevent lumps.
- Chill with Patience: Freeze shots for two hours, then refrigerate for one additional hour to develop ideal texture and creamy jiggle, guaranteeing perfect consistency.
