Tips for the Best White Jello Shots

When it comes to making the best White Jello Shots, a few simple tips can take your party game to the next level! 

First, let’s talk garnishes—because presentation is everything, right? I love topping each shot with a little dollop of whipped cream. It not only adds a creamy texture but also looks so inviting. 

If you want to get extra fancy, you can add a sprinkle of edible glitter or a small slice of fruit like a cherry or a piece of pineapple for a pop of color. These little touches make the shots look super festive and fun!

Speaking of presentation, I like to serve these shots in clear plastic cups so that the stunning white color really stands out!  Arranging them on a tray with some decorative elements like faux snow, silver confetti, or even mini umbrellas can also make them a showstopper at your party. 

The all-white shot makes them perfect for a bachelorette party or bridal celebration.

Meanwhile, if you’re feeling a little bit more creative, try serving them in hollowed-out lemon or lime halves for a cute and eco-friendly twist!

Now, let’s talk about variations because who doesn’t love a little experimentation? You can play around with different flavors and liquors! 

Pouring coconut cream into a clear bowl of gelatin.

One of my favorites is to add a splash of coconut rum for a tropical vibe or some vanilla vodka to keep things smooth and sweet. You could even mix in a little fruit juice, like pineapple or peach, to change up the flavor profile. 

With these tips, your white jello shots are guaranteed to be the star of any celebration!

White Jello Shots Recipe

Find out how to make the ultimate white jello shots recipe — easy to make, refreshing, and deliciously creamy, these shots are a must-try!
Prep Time15 minutes
Rest Time2 hours
Course: Drinks
Servings: 20 1.5-Ounce Shots

Equipment

  • 20 1.5-Ounce Shot Glasses
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Frosting Bag (optional for garnishing)
  • Ateco #824 Frosting Tip  (optional for garnishing)
  • Pourable Measuring Cup (I use a 2-cup size)

Ingredients

  • 2 Packets Unflavored Gelatin 0.25 ounces each
  • 1 Can Sweetened Condensed Milk 14 ounces
  • 1 Cup Coconut Rum
  • ½ Cup Cream of Coconut
  • ¼ Cup Cold Coconut Water
  • ¼ Cup Boiling Coconut Water
  • 1 Tub Cool Whip 8 ounces
  • White Nonpareil Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Place the cold coconut water in a medium mixing bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over the top. Give a slight stir with the whisk to ensure all the gelatin gets covered by water. Leave to sit for about 2-3 minutes, or until thickened.
  • Pour the boiling coconut water over the gelatin and whisk until dissolved.
  • Add the sweetened condensed milk, cream of coconut, and coconut rum to the bowl and whisk until combined. If your condensed milk wants to not fully mix, heat the mixture for about 15 seconds in the microwave and then whisk again and it should fix the issue.
  • Fill each shot glass (I use the pourable measuring cup at this point), leaving just a bit of head room at the top of each glass. This makes it easier to take back and forth to the fridge.
  • Place the shots in the fridge for 2 hours or until fully set.
  • When ready to serve, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and a dash of white nonpareil sprinkles. I use a frosting bag and Ateco #824 frosting tip to add a swirl of whipped cream. Start on the outside edge inside the glass and simply take the tip in a circle until it reaches the desired height, and finish in the middle. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Do not garnish if storing in the fridge for longer than an hour. Garnish before serving for best results. You can make these shots ahead. Simply leave them ungarnished and covered, for up to three days in the fridge. Do not freeze.
  • You can use other white sprinkles, if desired. I like white jimmies as well.
  • You don’t have to use the frosting bag and tip, it’s just an easy way to apply the cool whip in a gorgeous manner for serving.
  • You will have little flecks of coconut settle at the top of your shot once they’re set. This is from the cream of coconut and isn’t an issue.
  • Coconut cream and cream of coconut are not the same thing. You can not swap them out for each other. It has to be cream of coconut. 
  • If you want a powerful coconut flavor, add a ½ teaspoon coconut extract. Beware, it packs a coconut punch.
