Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 oz Lime-flavored gelatin
- 1 cup Hot water
- 1 cup Tequila
- 2 tbsp Triple sec or orange liqueur
- 1 cup Cold water
- 2 tsp Salt
- 12 pieces Lime wedges
- 12 pieces Mini plastic shot cups or silicone molds
Instructions
Boil 1 cup of water in a kettle or saucepan.
Add the lime-flavored gelatin to a mixing bowl, then pour in the hot water. Stir for 2-3 minutes until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Stir in the tequila and triple sec (or orange liqueur) into the gelatin mixture, mixing thoroughly.
Add the cold water and stir again until combined.
Prepare your mini plastic shot cups or silicone molds by placing them on a tray for stability. (If you want, you can lightly salt the rims by wetting the edges of the cups with a lime wedge and dipping them in salt before filling.)
Carefully pour the gelatin mixture into the cups or molds, filling each about 3/4 full.
Transfer the tray to the refrigerator and let the jello shots set for at least 2-3 hours or until firm.
Once set, garnish each jello shot with a small pinch of salt on top (optional) and a lime wedge for decoration.
Serve chilled and enjoy these playful Margarita Jello Shots at your next gathering!
