Poppy’s Jello Shots

Here’s a recipe for everyone’s favorite - from the beach to the parade route - Poppy’s Jello Shots!

Serving info: Makes approximately 16-32 shots, depending on the size of your paper soufflé cups.

Ingredients

  • Jello, 3 ounces box (grape, lemon and lime for Mardi Gras colors, of course!)

  • Water

  • 1 cup vodka

  • 1/4 cup Everclear grain alcohol (for the brave of heart)

  • 5 or 6 ice cubes

  • Paper soufflé cups in 1 ounce size

Following the speed set method on the Jello box, stir each 3 oz. box of Jello into 3/4 cup of boiling water until the Jello is fully dissolved and remove from the heat. Mix together the vodka and Everclear with 5 or 6 ice cubes. (If you wish to omit the grain alcohol, you may use exclusively vodka.). Add the alcohol mixture into the Jello, stirring until the ice melts.

Pour into paper soufflé cups arranged in rows and chill until firm.

To consume, squeeze the Jello shot out of the paper soufflé cup directly into your mouth and laugh!
