Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 oz Lemon-flavored gelatin mix
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 0.5 cup Cold water
- 0.5 cup Vodka
- 4 whole Lemons (for serving and optional garnish)
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
Instructions
Prepare the lemons for serving (optional): Cut the lemons in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the flesh to create lemon 'cups.' Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, add the lemon-flavored gelatin mix. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over it and whisk until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Stir in 0.5 cup of cold water and 0.5 cup of vodka. Continue to whisk until everything is well combined.
If using scooped-out lemons, place them upright in a muffin tin to stabilize them. Pour the gelatin mixture into the lemon halves or into small plastic or silicone shot molds.
Refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm.
Before serving, sprinkle a small amount of granulated sugar on top of each jello shot for a sweet-tart finish.
Serve the jello shots chilled and enjoy responsibly!
