Description
A fun and simple recipe for classic vodka jello shots, perfect for any adult gathering or party.
Ingredients
3 oz Jello Gelatin (any flavor, e.g., cherry, lime, orange)
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup vodka (plain or flavored)
Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Sliced fruit (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare your containers. Arrange 12-15 (2-ounce) plastic containers or shot glasses on a baking sheet or tray for easy transport.
Step 2: Dissolve gelatin. In a medium bowl, combine the Jello gelatin powder with 1 cup of boiling water. Whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until the gelatin is completely dissolved and no granules remain.
Step 3: Add cold water and vodka. Stir in the 1/2 cup of cold water and 1/2 cup of vodka. Mix well to ensure everything is thoroughly combined.
Step 4: Pour and chill. Carefully pour the liquid mixture into your prepared plastic containers or shot glasses, filling each about three-quarters full. Transfer the tray to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2-4 hours, or until the jello shots are completely set and firm. For best results, chill overnight.
Step 5: Serve and enjoy. Once set, you can optionally top your jello shots with a dollop of whipped cream and a small slice of fruit (like a lime wedge, cherry, or berry) before serving. Enjoy responsibly!
Notes
Experiment with different Jello and vodka flavors to create unique combinations! For an extra festive touch, layer different colors by chilling each layer until firm before adding the next. Always use a high-quality vodka for the best flavor.
