Jello Shots
Dissolve 2 regular sized Jello packages or one large packet into 1.5 cups (12 oz) boiling water.
Stir for at least a minute to fully dissolve and construct the gelatin.
Let cool for a few minutes - ten minutes isn't enough to set up the Jello but it will do a lot to keep the alcohol from evaporating.
Add 1.5 cups (12 oz) of ice cold 80-proof booze of your choice (such as vodka).
Stir and pour into your cups or whatever. It sets hard in about 1 hour.
Be extremely careful since these contain a lot more alcohol than you think. See warnings.
Your alcohol must be put into the freezer or dissolved. Jello must be cooled to room temperature. Failure to do so will result in the evaporation of all the alcohol before the jello sets.
Although shot glasses look prettier and allow you to see the vibrant colors of the Jello, paper cups allow for easier Jello shot consumption as they can be turned inside out. Ice cube trays also work well.
Plastic cups organize quite well in muffin trays, and are easier to handle and serve.
See the 'how to' on making rainbow jello for layering tips.
Be creative in mixing Jello flavors with alcohol. If you have a favorite alcoholic drink, try converting it into Jello shot form using unflavored Jello, juice, soda and alcohol.
Orange and cherry are Jello flavors that work well with Brandy.
You can match fruit flavored liquor with fruit flavored Jello.
Here are some other popular liquor and Jello flavor combinations:
Lime Jello with tequila and Triple Sec (try adding a pinch of salt to the liquid mixture)
Lime Jello with Coconut Rum
Orange jello with orange cognac and brandy (such as Grand Marnier) or peach Schnapps
Unflavored gelatin with Coca Cola and rum
Cranberry Jello with vodka
Cherry Jello with cherry brandy
Raspberry jello with raspberry Schnapps
Tropical fruit Jello (or unflavored gelatin mixed with fruit punch) with dark rum or mango liqueur
Unflavored Jello with lemonade and whiskey
Strawberry Jello with light rum and strawberry liqueur (such as Pucker)
Apricot Jello with amaretto
Lime Jello with Sake
Lime Jello with Sprite, Pimm's, and cucumber garnish
Strawberry Jello with champagne (retains some bubbles!)
Orange Jello with amaretto
Pineapple Jello with coconut rum
Blue Jello with Everclear

PINA COLADA JELL-O SHOTS
List of Ingredients
1 box 6 oz size of pineapple jello
1 can coconut milk
coconut rum
cold water
Recipe
Chill rum in freezer for 2 hours before making.
Dissolve the jello according to box directions
Depending on how strong you want your shots follow these guidelines:
For mild shots add 1 cup cold rum, 3/4 cup cold water 1/4 cup coconut milk
For stronger shots add 1 & 1/2 cups cold rum 1/4 cup cold water, and 1/4 cup coconut milk**
Mix with a spoon, then ladle into shot glasses of your choice.
I usually buy the smallest silo plastic cups and lids and use a turkey baster to transfer the liquid into the cups. Snap the caps on and put into refrigerator.
If you want a fast set put them into the freezer for an hour.
Or make ahead and freeze for a while and then bring out about an hour before the party.
You can also make blue hawaiians doing this:
Small box / 3/4 cup of cold rum and 1/4 cup of Blue Curacao
Large box / 1 & 1/4 cup cold rum and 1/4 cup Blue Curacao
