6 Steps To The Perfect Jello Shot

Easy jello shot recipe.

This recipe makes up about 32jello shots.

Step One

Firstly you need to gather the following ingredients.

A 6 oz pack of Jello (approximately 17 grams)

A quantity of jello cups or jello syringes

Some fruit segments (optional)

A little less than 3 cups of hot water (720mls)

About 1 cup of alcohol (usually Vodka or Rum) straight from the fridge

Step Two

Make up your base mixture. Mix together some water and alcohol to make up 2 cups in volume – the ratio depends on the proof of the alcohol you are using (see Alcohol Ratio Guide below)

Step Three

Place your base mixture in the fridge to cool and wait til it is really chilled before you take on the next step. It is essential that the mixture is really well chilled because alcohol evaporates at 78.6 degrees Celcius / 173 Fahrenheit. Therefore when you add the hot water jello mixture in step 5, it may reach evaporation point if you are not mixing it in with a well chilled base mixture.

Step Four

Boil some water in a pot or kettle, and add exactly 1 cup of boiling water to your powdered jello. Stir well until it is dissolved. It will look quite clear when it has dissolved.

Step Five

Pour the hot jello into your base mixture and stir’

Step Six

Pour the combined mixture into your jello cups, place on a tray and chill in the fridge for 3-4 hours. Serve chilled! And that’s all there is to know about how to make jello shots, happy partying!

Gourmet Vodka Jello Shots

Jello Shooters With Fruit

It is so easy to turn a mundane (but nonetheless enjoyable) Jello shot into a Gourmet surprise. Imagine a second burst of flavor when you find the surprise center. All you do is add a segment of fruit into the shot 'glass' before it cools and sets hard.

There is one thing to remember though: You don't have to follow this rule, but it makes sense to add a segment of orange to an orange jelly base; a cherry to a cherry flavored mix and so one.

Just watch the video above to find out more about how it's done properly. Of course if you are a bit of a prankster you might consider disguising a piece of lemon in a dark grape jelly for maximum effect!

Warning

The responsible service of alcohol.

Please consider that each shot is roughly equivalent to one standard drink. Be aware that you should limit your consumption and that of your guests, to avoid regretful situations which may occur as a result of too much alcohol. Never drink and drive.
