Recipe Tips
Easy carrying: Place your jello shot cups in a baking pan or muffin tin (as shown above) for easy transport to and from the fridge for chilling.
Strong jello shots: For stronger jello shots replace the 1/2 cup of cold water with an additional 1/2 cup of vodka, for a total of 1 cup of vodka. Or go try 3/4 cup vodka and 1/4 cup water.
Party ready: Use a disposable foil baking pan and disposable 2 oz cups for easy party transport and clean up.
Make ahead: Make the night before your party or event so that they will have plenty of time to set and you won’t have to worry about making them the day of.
Switch it up: Try the recipe with different liquors or different flavors of jello.
