Description

Colorful and fruity Jell-O shots perfect for parties and gatherings, featuring a striking ombré effect.


Ingredients

  • 1 (3 ounce) box berry blue or grape flavored Jell-O
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 3/4 cup vodka
  • 1/4 cup blue curaçao
  • 1/2 cup cranberry juice
  • Optional: orange or lemon zest, fresh berries, whipped cream, or tropical gummy candies for garnish


Instructions

  1. In a heatproof bowl, combine the Jell-O mix and boiling water. Stir for 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
  2. Let the mixture cool slightly, about 10 minutes, then stir in the vodka and blue curaçao.
  3. Divide the mixture evenly into 12-16 plastic shot cups. Set cups on a tray to keep them level and chill in the fridge for 30-40 minutes or until semi set.
  4. Carefully spoon cranberry juice on top of the set Jell-O layer to create a red ombré effect. Optionally, mix in a splash of vodka or rum.
  5. Return the tray to the fridge for 1-2 hours or until fully firm.
  6. Garnish with fresh fruit, citrus zest, gummy skewers, or whipped cream just before serving.

Notes

Optional: Use flavored soda or juice for a non-alcoholic version!
