Yield
Makes about 9 cups
Ingredients
3 cups water
2 cups sugar

4 1/2 cups rosé wine (from two 750-ml bottles)
2 tablespoons peach schnapps
Preparation
Step 1
Combine 2 cups water and sugar in a small saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Let gelatin stand 1 minute to soften.
Step 2
Cook over moderate heat, gently stirring occasionally, just until sugar and gelatin are dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in wine, schnapps, and remaining cup water. Pour into a 10-cup mold and chill, covered, until firm, at least 10 hours.
Step 3
Dip mold in hot water a few seconds, then invert a plate over gelée and flip gelée onto plate.
