Not only am I a vodka lover, but I’ve made and indulged in many Jello shots. One thing is for certain: the key to great Jello shots is the preparation.
Most recipes call for paper cups, which make it hard to “shoot” the jello. Plastic cups (with lids) sprayed with PAM cooking spray are the perfect vehicle for these delicious treats.
Jello Shots Ingredients
1 – 3 ounce box of Jello
1 cup water
1 cup Stolichnaya vodka (cold)
How to make Jello Shots
Add boiling water to gelatin mixture; stir for two minutes, or until completely dissolved.
Remove from heat; stir in cold vodka.
Count out 20 plastic cups and spray with PAM cooking spray.
Use a turkey baster to fill the plastic cups, cover with lids and refrigerate until the Jello is set.
How To Serve Jello Shots
Remove the plastic cups from the refrigerator right before serving. Shaking the cup will loosen up the Jello and make it easier to shoot.
Yield: 20 Jello shots.
Cheers!

There is one thing I have never tried and that’s the jello shot. Now I’ve had the vodka infused watermelons but never a jello shot…I feel sad…
You should make them for New Year’s Eve.
That is a good idea. Though it’s just me and the kids…Maybe I could make virgin ones for them.
Nothing like being the only one at the party who knows how to shoot the jello shot instead of digging at it with a spoon! Mmm, jello shots
It really is a good skill to have.
F.U.N! Love it!
For a 4th of July Party, I once made an American flag out of jell-o shots. I was pretty damn proud of myself
That sounds pretty awesome.
LOVE Jello Shots! We have them at all of our parties!
Sounds like your family has some fun parties.
