Total Time3 hours hrs 20 minutes mins
Servings: 9 shots
Ingredients:
- 1 Box Grape Jello 3 ounces
- ¾ Cup Boiling Water
- ⅔ Cup Red Berry Vodka
- 1 Tablespoon Lime Juice
- 4 Ounces Whipped Topping optional garnish
- Purple Sanding Sugar optional garnish
Items Needed:
- 9 2- Ounce Shot Cups with Lids
- Frosting Bag optional for garnishing
- Ateco #866 Frosting Tip optional for garnishing
Place the jello in a medium mixing bowl and pour the boiling water over the top of it.
Stir until the jello is fully dissolved.
Add the red berry vodka and lime juice to the mix and stir again.
Line your shot cups up (on something like a plate or baking sheet so you can easily move them after filling).
Fill each shot cup, leaving just a bit of room at the top so the cups don’t spill when moving them.
Chill the shots for two hours or until fully set.
If desired, top with a dollop of whipped topping and a sprinkle of purple sanding sugar. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Do not garnish the shots if you are planning on storing them. These can be stored, lids on, and no garnish, for up to 1 week. You’re welcome to freeze them, but it makes the consistency of the jello awkward. So, it’s up to you, but I don’t prefer it.
- You can use regular vodka and use a berry flavored liqueur, if you can’t find a berry vodka. Just don’t go over the total amount of alcohol used.
- If you want your jello shots thinner, you can add more alcohol. If you want them firmer, add less alcohol and replace it with more water.
