Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 oz Flavored gelatin (e.g., cherry, lime, orange)
- 2 packets Unflavored gelatin
- 3 cups Boiling water
- 1.5 cups Vodka (plain or flavored)
- 1.5 cups Cold water
- as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Lightly spray a 9x13-inch glass or plastic dish with nonstick cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the jello shots.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flavored gelatin and unflavored gelatin packets. Stir briefly to mix.
Add 3 cups of boiling water to the gelatin mixture. Stir thoroughly for 2-3 minutes, ensuring all the gelatin granules dissolve completely.
Mix in 1.5 cups of cold water, followed by 1.5 cups of vodka. Stir well to combine the liquids evenly.
Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Use a spatula to smooth out any foam or bubbles on the surface.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 4 hours, or until the jello is fully set and firm to the touch.
Once set, remove the dish from the refrigerator. Run a sharp knife under hot water, then cut the jello into small squares or rectangles, about 1 inch in size.
Gently remove the jello pieces from the dish using a spatula or your fingers. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
