Boil your water: For the base of your shots, boil 1 cup of water and add it to a mixing bowl that contains your flavored gelatin powder. Whisk the powder and hot water until the powder is dissolved.
Add your liquid: Pour in your remaining cold water and alcohol and whisk until combined.
Pour into cups: Pour your mixture into your small cups 3/4 of the way full (it’s easiest to pour from a spouted measuring cup) and add lids. Make sure your liquid is completely cool before adding lids so you don’t get condensation forming on the inside of the lid.
Set your jello shots: Put your jello shots in the fridge for 2-4 hours until set. Once ready to eat, set them out for your guests and enjoy!

Make the base of your jello shot with the directions above, but use a black container if possible. Once the jello is set, add green boba pearls to the top of your container to make the cauldron bubbles and break a swizzle stick shorter to be the stirring wand. Serve your shots!

Make the base of your jello shot with the directions above. Once the jello is set, add a gummy eyeball on top of the shot and serve!

Make the base of your red jello shot with the directions above (you can also make them green or other fun colors), but instead of pouring the mixture into cups to set, use your jello shot syringes to suck up the liquid into the syringe. Allow the jello to set in the fridge and serve!

Make the base of your green jello shot with the directions above. Once the jello is set, add green boba pearls to the top of your container to make the monster body and add candy eyeballs on top to make a silly face. Serve your shots!

This recipe is for a 3-ounce box, so just double the water and alcohol if you are making a 6-ounce box.

Tips and Tricks for Halloween Jello Shots:

Try squeezable cups to get your jello shot out easier.
Don't add the boba pearls, candy eyes, or gummy eyes until right before you are ready to serve.
Use a flavored vodka (like vanilla or chocolate) to add another layer of flavor to your shot.
Layer your shots with different flavors and Halloween colors by pouring a small amount of one flavor in each cup, let that flavor set in the fridge, and add another flavor on top. Repeat with as many flavors as you would like!
