Vodka Jelly Shots are a party classic: fruit jelly made with a splash of vodka and set in little cups. Easy to make the day before.

Ingredients

  • 1 x 135g packet of fruit jelly cubes
  • 200ml boiling water
  • 150ml cold water
  • 150ml vodka
  • About 20 small plastic shot cups

Method

  1. Dissolve: Melt the jelly cubes in the boiling water, stirring until smooth.
  2. Cool: Stir in the cold water, leave to cool for 10 minutes, then stir in the vodka.
  3. Set: Pour into shot cups and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.

Tips for the Perfect Vodka Jelly Shots

  • Don't add the vodka while the jelly is very hot, or some of the alcohol will evaporate.
  • Keep the total liquid close to the packet instructions or the jelly won't set.
  • Label them clearly and keep them away from children.

Variations

Try lime jelly with tequila, or raspberry jelly with gin.
