What You Need to Make IT Jello Shots

How to Make IT Jello Shots

Start by mixing 1 cup of boiling water with the packet of Strawberry Jell-o mix until dissolved (it will be a clear red color).

Allow the mixture to cool for 1-2 minutes and then add 1 cup of whipped vodka. Stir well. Note: You can make these less strong by using 1/2 cold water and 1/2 whipped vodka instead.

Next, use the turkey baster to fill each shot glass entirely. This recipe will make 12 – 1 oz. jello shots.

Place the jello shots into the refrigerator and allow to set and become firm (about 1-2 hours).

Once firm, remove from the fridge and attach a small piece of white curling ribbon to the bottom of each shot glass using a piece of tape. You can also curl the ends using scissors.

Arrange on your table to look like Pennywise red balloons.

Serve and Enjoy!

Helpful Tips:

  • If you want to make these ahead of time, you can get the containers with lids for easy storing and stacking.
  • These can be stored in the fridge for up to a week in advance.
  • I found it easiest to place the shot glasses on a cookie sheet before filling for easy transport to the fridge.
