Making Jell-O shots is just like making Jell-O, except you're substituting the ALCOHOL for the cool water. Here is the recipe for everyone's favorite; Maraschino Cherry Shooters!!!!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 16 ounces (2 cups) boiling water
  • 2 pkg (4 serving size each) Cherry gelatin
  • 8 ounces Vodka
  • 8 ounces Cherry Brandy
  • One package 1oz-2oz plastic cups
  • small jar Maraschino Cherries
  1. Step 1

    STIR boiling water into gelatin in medium bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in alcohol. (This is the step that usually calls for water)

  3. Step 3

    Pour mixture into individual shot-size (1oz-2oz) plastic cups.

  4. Step 4

    Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until slightly thickened. Push in the Maraschino Cherries with your finger. (Leave the stems out, it looks great visually) Continue to refrigerate another 6-8 hours.

Tips & Warnings
  • Impress your friends with orange shot slices! Cut oranges in half. Remove the fruit, leaving just the rind of half an orange. Fill the halves with gelatin shot mixture. Refrigerate until firm. Cut orange halves into thirds. Enjoy.
  • You must be 21 to enjoy this fantastic treat.
  • Please enjoy responsibly.
  • Friends don't let friends drive drunk. Ever.

on 8/11/2008 If you ever go to a party and jello-shooters are served, you know the party is about FUN! I have always wanted to try this--thanks for the recipe. I may try making it with Knox gelatin (the unflavored kind) and then adding juice, and, 'natch, the booze.
