Thread: Jello Shots

Tweet

Best site I've found for making jello shots and recipes - especially if you're new to this as we were last year. Yeah, I know they're supposed to be easy, but since I never do test runs with food/drinks, I like to make sure that anything new I try is as foolproof (and idiot proof!) as possible

Last year, I made three kinds: cherry amaretto, orange peach schnapps, and watermelon apple sour. They all went over well, though the cherry amaretto was far and away the favorite. This year I'm going to try the chocolate covered cherry, which has rum-soaked cherries inside the shot and is covered with a thin shell of chocolate and whip cream.

Thanks for the link!!

Question - I am doing a lime jello shot and calling it 'kryptonite' as Our theme is Heroes and Villains, I would like to do another flavor but not sure what or what to call it....help?

Maybe the cherry amaretto and call it "Red Skull"? You could add maraschino cherries, too.

A blue shot (here's the straight link to the suggested blue flavors http://www.myscienceproject.org/j-shot-4.html ), and call it something based on Mr. Freeze - Cryokinesis, Freeze Gun Particles, ...?

I've done lemon and lime flavored jello shots and people say they are their least favorites. Anything red and the orange amaretto are always the favorites.

I have found that using coconut rum with lime jello is a big hit with the parties I have thrown. It's one of my favorites.

Lime jello shots made with tequila are good too!

Here are a couple of threads with some shot recipes too

Bug Jello Shots

Halloween shots

I have fun doing pina colada ones BUT my twist is to make it in my jello brain mold. The pina colada jello turns white when it gels, so a few drops of food color make it look great. I've also done mojito flavored molds.... green hand with all the little mint leaves... gives a whole new meaning to "just 2 fingers" for me.

Well well well, I may have to try that there Apple Cider shot, and the Brain Hemorrhage, just for fun-ness. Thanks for the great link!

OK, I decided to try the Apple Cider jello shot, and I have to tell you - it was AMAZING. Super super delicious, especially with the caramel sauce on top. Gotta have the sauce.
Two thumbs way way up!
