Halloween Jello Shots
Red jello shots with Halloween candy eyeballs that can easily be transformed into jello cups without alcohol so that you can cater to kids and adults.
Servings 9 shots
Ingredients
- 3 ounce package red jello strawberry or cherry flavored
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup vodka or cold water if making cups without alcohol
- Eyeball candies for decoration
Instructions
- Place the cups or containers you’ll use on a flat surface. I use a large cookie tray that fits in my fridge.
- Boil 1 cup water in a small saucepan or jar.
- Place the 3-ounce package of red jello powder in a medium bowl.
- Pour the boiling water and stir with a whisk until completely dissolved.
- Pour in 1 cup of vodka (or cold water if making cups without alcohol) and stir until combined. The mixture should just be warm to the touch.
- Carefully pour the mixture into the containers. Use a pitcher for easier pouring.
- Chill the jello cups in the fridge for about 2 hours or until set.
Notes
Storage: jello cups can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. Place them in an airtight container or cover each cup with a plastic lid or wrap. Don't store them with the candy eyeball on top, as it will dissolve due to condensation.
Make ahead: Use plastic cups with lids. Wait until the jello is completely firm, close the cups, and stack them in the fridge. When ready to serve, remove the lid and add the candy eyeball.
