What You Need to Make Eyeball Jello Shots:
- Strawberry Jello (6 oz)
- Cold Water
- Boiling Water
- Vodka- You can use your favorite brand
- Gummy Eyeball Candies
- Mini Plastic Shot Glasses
- Mini Plastic Spiders (optional)
- Hot Glue (optional)
Helpful Tips
- You can make these in advance. However, I suggest adding the gummy eyeball right before serving so it doesn’t get hard from being in the fridge.
- You can swap out the vodka for tequila, white rum or any other white liquor you want to use.
- You can use the larger condiment plastic cups with the lids and place lids on each one if you plan to transport them.
- Use plastic shot glasses, the Jello is sticky and hard to get out of the shot glasses, you don’t want anyone breaking a glass shot glass. Besides cleanup is easier with the plastic ones.
- Do not add your alcohol until after you’ve made the Jello mix because you will burn the alcohol out and these will not be boozy.
- Use a funnel to pour the Jello mixture into the shot glasses, it makes it so much easier!

Eyeball Jello Shots
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 box Strawberry Jello 6 oz
- 1 Cup Boiling Water
- 1 Cup Cold Water
- 1 Cup Vodka
- Gummy Eyeball Candies
Instructions
- Start by gluing the tiny toy spiders onto the outside of the plastic shot glasses. This isn't necessary but gives it an added creepy look.
- Following the instructions on the package, bring your Jello mix and 1 cup of water to a boil. Stir well until the jello mixture is dissolved.
- Next, add your other cup of water and a cup of Vodka and stir well.
- Use a funnel to pour the mixture into the plastic shot glasses filling them almost all of the way full.
- Carefully place these into the fridge and allow to set for a least an hour (overnight is best). It is easier to transport these on a cookie sheet.
- Once set, add the gummy eyeball on top.
- Serve and enjoy!

Notes
- You can use all vodka and no water if you'd like. It would just make the jello shots stronger.
- You can double and triple this recipe. They do sell 3 oz. or 6 oz. boxes of jello mix. On the 6 oz. box, you can then use 2 cups boiling water, 2 cups vodka or 2 cups boiling water + 1 cup cold water + 1 cup vodka.
