One of my fondest memories from the University of Florida were the crazy jello shots you found at almost every party you went to, easy to make, fun to drink, and found in almost every color – of course, for us they were mostly Orange and Blue!!!!
I tried out Jello shots in France with some friends after discovering that My American Market sold Jello!!! I thought it would be fun to see what the French thought of this staple university drink from the States. The verdict : most of them liked it, but some were grossed out by jello’s texture...definitely funny to watch, I guess it takes a little getting used to.
So here’s the standard recipe for Jello Shots. You can use any liquor, I used vodka because I had Raspberry Jello, but you can get inventive and use Tequila with Lime Jello for Margarita Shots...I’m sure you get the idea.
Basic Vodka Jello Shots Recipe
Ingredients :
2 x 3oz Jello
16oz Boiling Water
6oz Cold Water
10oz Vodka
Directions :
1. Mix Jello mix with boiling water until dissolved
2. Add cold water and alcohol
3. Pour mixture into cups, careful not to spill any!
4. Put jello cups into the fridge for at least 4 hours or until it congeals.
Makes about :
18-22 2oz shots.
Hope this inspiring you to serve these entertaining treats at your next soiree!!! Check out the pics of the Jello Shot making process and our happy group! 
So I started with Raspberry Jello and 2oz plastic shot cups – ideal for Jello shots since you can cover them with a lid and stack them in the fridge or transport them with ease.
Here is the boiled water, Jello mix, cold water and Vodka all mixed in the bowl. It really takes about 3 minutes to get to this point after the water is boiled.
I filled all the 2oz cups with the Jello mixture. Quite simple, but careful not to spill too much mix while filling the cups – it’s just less to have later.
The shots stacked perfectly in the fridge!!!
And a very content group of friends!!! Thanks for the Jello, Clark!
