Servings: 12
Calories: 50kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup boiling water
- 3 ounces jello gelatin mix, various flavors
- ½ cup cold water
- ½ cup vodka, plain or flavored
- 2 ounce plastic containers with lids, or shot glasses
- whipped cream, optional
- fruit toppings, optional
Instructions
- In a small pan, boil one cup of water.
- Once boiling, add in the jello gelatin mix and whisk until completely dissolved. Remove the pan from the stove and pour the mixture into a separate pourable container. This can be either a glass measuring cup or a small pitcher.
- Begin by whisking in cold water, and then add in the vodka.
- Once combined, pour the finished mixture into the 2-ounce containers or any plastic shot glass until almost full.
- Allow to set in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour, preferably 2 to 3 hours.
Notes
- I usually serve our simple jello shots in mini 2-ounce cups with lids. For Halloween, you could also make jello shot syringes for a great themed option.
- Allow the dissolved gelatin mixture to cool slightly before adding in the vodka. This will prevent the alcohol from boiling out, resulting in weaker shots. By pouring the mixture into a separate container will allow the mixture enough time to cool to a sufficient temperature and make it easier to pour into your containers.
- If you’re feeling fancy, feel free to combine two flavors together! Fill a 2-ounce container up halfway, allow the first layer to set in the freezer for about 20 minutes, just to help it firm up a little faster, and then pour on the second flavor. Allow mixture to set in the fridge for a couple of hours until completely set.
