Scale
Ingredients
- 3 ounces flavored gelatin mix
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 1/2 cup vodka (use your preferred brand)
- 10 2-ounce plastic cups with lids
Instructions
- Prepare cups: Layout the 2-ounce plastic cups on a baking sheet without their lids to keep them stable during filling. Set aside for easy access.
- Dissolve gelatin: In a medium mixing bowl or 4-cup liquid measuring cup, pour the flavored gelatin mix. Add the boiling water and whisk thoroughly until the gelatin is completely dissolved with no lumps.
- Add liquids: Pour in the vodka and cold water into the gelatin mixture. Whisk once more to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Fill cups: Carefully pour the gelatin mixture into the plastic cups, filling each about three-quarters full. This leaves room to place lids on later without spilling.
- Chill: Refrigerate the filled cups for 2 to 3 hours or until the gelatin has fully set and firm.
- Seal and store: Once set, put lids on each cup. Store the jello shots in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve them chilled at your event or party.
Notes
- Use flavored gelatin mixes of your choice to vary the taste and color of your jello shots.
- Vodka quality affects flavor—opt for a smoother vodka for a better tasting shot.
- Do not overfill cups to prevent spillage and to ensure lids fit securely.
- Jello shots should be kept refrigerated and consumed within 24-48 hours for best freshness.
