Festive Halloween Jello Shots Recipe

These jello shots feature three distinct layers that mimic the colors of candy corn: yellow, orange, and white. The recipe takes about 2 hours to prepare and chill, and it yields approximately 12 shots.

Ingredients

1 cup water
1 cup vodka or rum
1 package (3 oz) yellow jello
1 package (3 oz) orange jello
1 package (3 oz) unflavored gelatin
1 cup coconut milk or cream
1 cup tonic water (for glow effect)
1/2 cup sugar (optional, for sweetness)
Clear plastic shot glasses

Instructions

Prepare the Yellow Layer: Boil 1/2 cup of water, then mix in the yellow jello until dissolved. Stir in 1/2 cup of vodka and pour into shot glasses, filling them about one-third full. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
Prepare the Orange Layer: Boil another 1/2 cup of water, mix in the orange jello until dissolved. Stir in 1/2 cup of vodka and pour over the set yellow layer, filling the glasses another third. Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
Prepare the White Layer: In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of water with unflavored gelatin and sugar (if using). Heat until dissolved, then mix in coconut milk and tonic water. Allow to cool slightly before pouring over the orange layer. Refrigerate until fully set, about 1 hour.
Serve: Once all layers are set, serve the shots chilled. The tonic water will give them a glowing effect under black light.
