I recommend using a 4 cup (or larger) clear plastic measuring cup. That way you can mix them and pour right into the little cups. You will also need another smaller measuring cup for the liquor. For all the recipes, I use the small packages of Jello. Start with 1 cup of boiling water in the large measuring cup; add the Jello and stir until it’s all dissolved. Then add the liquor and pour into cups. Refrigerate & serve (takes about 4 hours for them to set.) Each batch makes approximately 20 shots (if you use the smaller 1 oz. plastic cups. I think I bought a case of them at Gordon Food Service a while back. They probably have something similar at Costco or Sam's Club.)
Basic Shots:
Any flavor jello (watermelon, orange & berry blue, etc.)
1 cup vodka
Pina Colada:
Pineapple Jello
1 cup coconut rum (Malibu, Parrot Bay, etc.)
Margarita:
Margarita Jello (or lime - can't always find the margarita flavor. Or you can make a double batch using 1 package each of lime and lemon.)
¾ cup tequilla
¼ cup Grand Marnier, Cointreau or triple sec
Cosmopolitan:
Cranberry Jello
¾ cup citrus vodka
¼ cup Grand Marnier, Cointreau or triple sec
Strawberry Daiquiri:
Strawberry Jello
1 cup dark rum
Sex on the Beach:
Peach Jello
1/3 cup Chambord
1/3 cup Coconut Rum
1/3 cup Midori melon liqueur
Rum Runner:
Strawberry Banana Jello
1/3 cup blackberry brandy
1/3 cup Captain Morgan or Myers Rum
1/3 cup Bacardi 151 Rum
(You can add a few drops of blue food color to make it more purple – then you can tell it apart from the Cosmo’s.)
Kiddie Jello Shots:
Mix any flavor according to package directions and pour into little cups. Set aside carefully and try not to mix up with the grown-up shots. Do not fall for Lil Pea's or Grayton Kid trying to tell you that there is liquor in them. :oops:
Linda, didn't you post these before? I think I printed them out? Now WHERE did I put them? Thanks (in case I've lost my mind--and the recipes!)

I don't think I posted them, but I probably sent a few people the recipes in a Word doc.

I have a question. Since the only times I have ever done Jello-shots they were made in one of those aluminum pans and were not in those little plastic cups. So, I just used a spoon and ate the whole dam* pan. (Not a good idea by the way). Anyway, does the jello come out on it's own, or you do you have to squeeze the cup to get it to come out? :idontno:

If the shot glass is the right size, you can put on quite a show getting the jello out with your tongue. :rolling:

You just gave me a great idea Jen-ay. ;-)
My girlfriend makes a drink, and here is the recipe and how you drink it.
Add Kahlua and Bailey's to shot glass, garnish with whipped cream. You cannot use your hands while you shoot this. You must bend over, put shot glass in mouth, tilt head back and down it.
Anyone want to guess the name of this?

Just remember they melt VERY quickly out in the sun (they were liquid within 10 minutes tops on the day I took some to the pool by our cottage.) So don't bring out too many at once!

You posted them before because I printed them out & then forgot to bring the recipes on my beach trip in April. :bang: Your avatar is making me thirsty for one. Hopefully I will remember the recipes for the next trip!

Thanks! Although, I think they'll disappear pretty dang quick! I'll make sure we get them in the fridge if not.

The little 3 oz. Dixie cups work in a pinch - just don't fill them all the way.
Make sure you get some berry blue jello to go with the red so your jello shots have a patriotic theme! Happy 4th!

I wonder who that could be? :idontno: I came home and bought jello the next day. I don't like those shooters, I LOVE them. Thanks for the recipes Lindabob. Will try to bring some to the 4th bash if the "teen wolfs" don't suck them all down first.

My 21-year-old daughter is very impressed with your Jello shot recipes. She asked for the link. LOL. I had never heard of Jello shots (guess I'm too old school). Definitely will try them!

I'm sure there is a Youtube video out there somewhere with a Jello shot eating/sucking demonstration!

the 3m version (scary strong - i went to college with engineers)
3 cups of pectin (jelly making pectin) mixed according to package directions but with 1/2 to 1/3 the given amount of water and nothing else
place the hot liquid in an ice bath and wait until it has almost, almost, almost congealed
place it quickly into a blender with 2 cups straight liquor and puree or whip for 10-15 seconds to create thousands of tiny pectin bubbles filled with straight liquor
pour the froth into ice cube trays and place them immediately into the refigerator to finish congealing, repeat the blending process if necessary between trays to maintain frothyness
once hardened, they are straight liquor gummy cubes
melts in the mouth, not in the cup
whoo-hoo!

I did both. It works great either way. the 3 ounce cups require a spoon to eat it with (didn't have the tiny cups - guess we can order them online - nowhere to get them around here).
