Can You Get Drunk Off Jello Shots?

Yes, they are made with alcohol! Although the alcohol content isn’t a lot, they are so fun and easy to eat, the alcohol can really sneak up on you.

This recipe is intended only for responsible adults of legal drinking age. It is purely intended for entertainment purposes.

Please enjoy these responsibly and with moderation.

How Long does it Take for Gelatin Shots to Set?

Assuming you use the proportions given in the recipe, it takes about 2 hours total to set up all the way. This of course also depends on the size of container you use used.

Be sure to keep them in the fridge until set, and ready to serve. If they do not set up it is likely that you used too much alcohol or liquid in general. Make sure you measure carefully!

How to Serve Witches Brew Jello Shots

As with any jello shot, you can serve these in a variety of ways:

• Disposable plastic shot cups.
• Shot glasses. You will need to provide miniature spoons.
• Muffin tins lined with silicone liners or cupcake wrappers.

Tips for Making the Best Jello Shots

• Place your shot glasses on a sheet pan before filling them to make placing them in the refrigerator easier.
• If the shot comes out stiffer than normal, not enough liquid was used.
• If the shot won’t set up, it means too much alcohol was used.
• Do not replace the water with alcohol, if you put too much alcohol into your Jello Shot then it won’t set.

Make Ahead & Storage Instructions

Jello shots store well in the fridge for up to a week, they are safe to consume for about 2 weeks but the gelatin does start to break down after a week, which can give the shots a weird consistency.

If you are making these jello shots ahead of time or taking them to a party, be sure to buy shot cups with lids and store in the fridge until serving. If you using glass shot glasses be sure to cover each with plastic wrap pressed down to the surface of the shot to prevent the shots from getting a hard “skin”.

You should plan to consume the shots within 30 – 45 minutes of removing from the refrigerator.

About the Equipment Needed to Make Jello Shots

16 2-Ounce Shot Glasses – As mentioned above, you can also use jello shot cups or just a sheet pan.

Turkey Baster – It is a lot easy and less messy to fill the shot glasses with a turkey baster. These are pretty inexpensive and can be found at most grocery stores.

About the Ingredients for Witched Brew Jello Shots

Jello – Use green apple jello for the best flavour combination, but you can use lime in a pinch.

Vodka – Use green apple vodka. Smirnoff makes a good one, you can also use 1/2 cup green apple sourpuss and 1/2 cup vodka instead.

Condensed milk – Adds creamy sweetness to the shot that balances out the sour of the green apple flavours.

Gelatin – Plain, unflavoured gelatin.

Food colouring – Use only gel food colouring to make jello shots, as liquid food colouring could water down the mix, and prevent it from setting.

Boba – You can find Green Apple Popping Boba on Amazon. Popping boba is juicy rather than chewy.
