Ingredients

Scale

Jello Mixture

  • 1 Box strawberry jello, 3 ounce package
  • 1¼ Cups boiling water
  • ¾ Cup vodka, red berry flavor

Decoration

  • 9 bloodshot eye candies

Instructions

  1. Prepare the gelatin: In a heatproof bowl, dissolve the entire 3-ounce package of strawberry jello in 1¼ cups of boiling water, stirring thoroughly until the gelatin powder is completely dissolved.
  2. Add vodka: Allow the dissolved jello mixture to cool slightly for about 5 minutes, then stir in ¾ cup of red berry-flavored vodka until fully incorporated.
  3. Pour into molds: Carefully pour the jello and vodka mixture into individual shot glasses or small containers, filling each about three-quarters full.
  4. Chill to set: Place the filled shot glasses in the refrigerator and chill for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until the jello shots are fully set and firm.
  5. Decorate with eyeballs: Just before serving, garnish each jello shot with a bloodshot eye candy for a spooky and fun Halloween effect.

Notes

  • You can adjust the vodka amount slightly depending on your desired strength, but do not exceed the liquid ratios to ensure proper setting.
  • If you do not have red berry vodka, plain vodka can be used along with a few drops of red food coloring for the same effect.
  • For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the vodka with cold water.
  • Make sure the jello mixture is not too hot when adding the vodka to prevent evaporating the alcohol.
  • Use small shot glasses or silicone molds for easy serving and removal.
