What’s So Great About This Recipe?
Who says Jello shots can’t be classy? These are beautiful and they taste amazing! The gold sanding sugar melts into the gelatin and looks a little like gold flake or confetti, making them super elegant and party-ready. You can also use blueberries or raspberries to give them a funkier look and an extra burst of flavor. They are perfect to make ahead of time in a large batch. Make them as early as four days before your event and keep them refrigerated until party time – just wrap them up tightly so they don’t absorb any other odors in your fridge. Jello shots allow for a perfectly even ratio of alcohol and mixer in every serving, so you don’t have to worry about the first glass being too strong or the last glass being too watered down. The variations for these Jello shots are endless. Ginger beer with vodka and lime juice? Prosecco with strawberry vodka and lemonade? Mango-pineapple juice with Malibu rum? Jello French 75’s with gin, champagne, and lemon juice? Go wild! In general, I just stick to this simple formula: 1 cup non-alcoholic liquid + 1 cup alcohol + 2 packets gelatin
