Jello Shots

Ashley says:

I once used this seasonal margarita jello and tequilla but if you cant find margarita jello I bet lime or lemon would work as good one small cup jello I used 1/2 cup tequilla. 1 1/2 cup water or for stronger ones use 2/3 cup tequilla and 1 1/3 cup water. Rule of thumb always have 2 cups liquid but if you go over a cup liquor than they either will take forever to set or wont set at all depending on the type of alcohol.

Use any flavor rums or vodkas with a mixture of berry jellos... Malibu Rum with Island Pineapple jello is awesome in the summer. Two 3 oz. boxes of jello and use a 9x13 pan and get a couple of spoons and dig in... good times!

Heather says:

How many shots does this recipe make? I'm going to use 1 oz. plastic cups (I think!)

· Nov 24 · #13835

Kritael replies:

Maybe 2 oz. cups but 1 oz. would be very small. I bought 1.5 oz. cups and I'm concerned about them being too small.

Thelma (Georgia) replies:

This recipe is in total of:

46 oz of liquid/1oz cup = 46 shots
46oz/2oz cup= 23 shots

I am going to make them for first time (I tasted before) and I will use a flavored Absolute vodka and same flavor for the Jello :)

Use Everclear, not vodka!! Makes shots go farther!!

· Sep 11 · #3432

ZC replies:

Using everclear can be DANGEROUS if people aren't very responsible about how many shots to have. Stick to vodka. You wanna get plastered, not alcohol poisoning.

· Nov 12 · #11496

Dawn replies:

It depends on how much you use for each shot. Remember they are supposed to be done all at once.

Speedlover (Maine) replies:

I make 200 Jellos at a time. I mix it up with good vodka and Malibu together, Black Cherry Jello. Love to experiment. Great for Races, cuz you don't have to keep going... and your nails grow strong. Have fun with them!

· Sep 15 · #3877

Veronica replies:

I've used Everclear in the jello shots. I only use 1/4 cup per box. If you use too much they will not set. I do let everyone know that the jello shots have Everclear; everyone is an adult.

· Oct 9 · #6929

Bonnie replies:

Do Not Use Everclear. Everclear is just a manslaughter charge waiting to happen. Unfortunately, adults - after they've consumed a few shots, are for the most part very foolish as to the decisions they make.... It will always come back to the host or the person who made the shots..... Not worth it.

· Oct 15 · #7722

Kim replies:

I use everclear with everything. I have use everclear with jello shot and also PJ, It dont take long to feel good. But you really have to be careful not to have too much everclear in your jello.

· Dec 2 · #15266

Tom replies:

Everclear should only be allowed with a special permit and you certainly don't want to drink it in a way that covers it's potency. I've almost died on that stuff once and never again will I touch it.

Trina (Ohio) replies:

What is everclear?

· Dec 26 · #21056

Martha (United States) replies:

Trina, Everclear is worse than Vodka or even Gin or even hotshots. Everclear is a man or woman killer. Trust me I know, please don't mess with it.

· Dec 27 · #21104

Chris (Louisiana) replies:

Everclear is basically moonshine, white lightening (the legal commercially packaged type) - I personally do not like it in any form or mixed with anything. Back in the day, I had a boyfriend who kept a pint in his car. He poured it in his carburetor when the car would not start. That should tell you something. Can be pretty dangerous if you don't extremely limit your guests' intake. Why worry, just use rum or vodka (regular or flavored).

NYCco (Texas) replies:

Everclear - A distilled alcoholic beverage consisting only of corn-derived alcohol and water.

Country of origin - United States

Alcohol by volume - 95% or 75.5%

Proof - 190 or 151

190-proof Everclear is legally a neutral grain spirit in the United States.

Everclear is the brand name of a colorless, unflavored, distilled beverage bottled at two different high strengths: 151-proof and 190-proof, meaning respectively 75.5% and 95% alcohol by volume. It is distilled by Luxco (formerly the David Sherman Company).

Everclear is distilled from corn (maize) and is nearly identical in taste to fine-grade unflavored vodka, although it contains more alcohol. Both Everclear and fine-grade vodka are very low in congeners, which are agents that develop during fermentation or are added later and that lend flavor and color to whiskeys and other liquors.

DO NOT USE IT FOR JELLO SHOTS. YOU CAN GET ALCOHOL POISONING.

Bob (Maryland) replies:

everclear is legal moonshine

Amanda (Washington) replies:

Everclear is dangerous if used in an inappropriate manner, but I have found that Apple Pie (apple and cinnamon flavored mixed everclear beverage) is one of the best drinks I have ever had, and makes a darn good jello shot.

· Dec 31 · #21928

Tonya (Louisiana) replies:

Amanda spoke of Apple Pie. I REALLY need the recipe for this drink. I agree that this is the best thing I have ever had!! I really want to know how to make it. If anyone can help, Please and Thank You!!

Tom (Maryland) replies:

Lacy (Illinois) replies:

LACY'S APPLE PIE (BEVERAGE)

Apple Pie is delicious!

This a super easy recipe that is great for tailgating and fall get-togethers. As the name implies it tastes just like "Apple Pie"

What you will need...
1 1/2 gallons apple juice from bottle or concentrate
1 gallon apple cider
1 (750 ml.) Everclear (or Clear high proof liquor like Bacardi 151)
8 cinnamon sticks
4 cups sugar
4 cups brown sugar

How to make...
Combine apple juice, cider, cinnamon sticks and sugars in a large pot and bring to a boil on the stove. Simmer 15 to 30 minutes until all the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Remove cinnamon sticks. Stir in you alcohol, bottle (empty liquor bottles work great) and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve!

Janey (Texas) replies:

Another good jello shot is using Amaretto and Orange Jello, that tastes great! Also, used Hot Damm liquor with cherry jello it was different and everyone at one of my parties loved it. Tequila with Lime Jello, tastes like a Margarita shot! I use Everclear at times, but sparingly - too potent. Sam's Club sells the small condiment cups w/lids - makes great jello shot containers - last forever, lots of them in the box.

Danielle (New Hampshire) replies:

Where in the world do you buy everclear???? Cannot find it in any alcohol store where I live.....

· Jan 3 · #22547

Austin (North Carolina) replies:

Everclear and other brands of grain alcohol are illegal to sell in many states, so for those of you having problems finding it you may want to research your respective states' laws. I would stick to vodka as it always seems to work great. If Everclear is a must then just use some basic math to make the alcohol content about equivalent (80 to 100 proof vodka compared with 190 proof grain alcohol). Use too much alcohol and the jello will not set. Hope this helps, be safe!

Alta (Ohio) replies:

I have been trying to find everclear and it is illegal in Ohio. They can not sell it here any where in Ohio..

Teresa (Ohio) replies:

You can buy Everclear in West Virginia and Florida.

· Jan 15 · #24485

Sharon (Washington) replies:

I'm in Washington state and drive over to Montana for Everclear. I use it to make Lemoncello and Kahlua. It can be very dangerous, thus the liquor stores limit how much they will sell you at one time.

· Jan 8 · #23307

Vickie (Colorado) replies:

Everclear is one step away from white lightin' !! It's 190 proof. Some liquor stores carry it and some don't due to it being so high of an alcohol content..

· Jan 14 · #24355

Shar (Louisiana) replies:

I am making jello shots for our tailgate party this weekend; never considered Everclear! But I'm sticking to vodka. Have had them with the whip cream, it is good.

· Jan 16 · #24627

Julie (Iowa) replies:

I personally dont care for the taste or effect of everclear. I prefer a fruitier taste. If you buy watermelon jello look for a watermelon pucker. At one time I could buy green apple jello, which I can no longer find and mixed it with green apple pucker. YUMMY!!!!

· Jun 9 · #126785

Sarah (Maryland) replies:

I can not believe everyone bashing everclear. Try responsibility?! If you can't limit yourself then don't drink it.

Cd11781 (Illinois) replies:

I had it with everclear, it was much better!! And no one got hurt to those who have opinions.

· Feb 6 · #152339

Brittany (Louisiana) replies:

Nothing wrong with Everclear if you are responsible. It's about twice as strong as vodka, so a little goes a long ways. If you'd rather get buzzed off of a few drinks rather than a lot, Everclear is the affordable way to go. 2 shots of Everclear (mixed with lemonade or something... definitely not solo) makes me feel like I drank 5 shots of vodka... and it's cheaper!

· Apr 4 · #171623

Lisa Young (Georgia) replies:

Beware of the Everclear. 190 proof. Be careful.

· Dec 29 · #177342

Rock (Texas) replies:

Not to be a geek, but Everclear is pure ethanol, at 180 proof. It is used as an industrial solvent (makes a great degreaser) and in various chemical processes. Denatured alchohol is basically the same thing, but they add gasoline to it to make it undrinkable.

Everclear is a cheap drunk, because it doesn't take much to get hammered. It is, however, dangerous stuff to consume. I have seen folks sent to the ER after drinking it, and some of them died. Their appears to be a fine line between a pleasantly high dose and a lethal one, so it pays to be careful.

Good luck putting the stuff in jello shots.
