Ingredients

Instructions

  • Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove the hot water from the heat and whisk in the green Jello powder, stirring until completely dissolved.
    1 box lime jello
  • Add ½ cup of cold water and ½ cup vodka to the green gelatin mixture and stir to combine.
    4 cups water, 1 ½ cups vodka
  • Divide the green Jello mixture evenly between 3 oz. plastic shot cups, filling each one about ⅓ full. Move the cups to the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours.
  • Whisk together 1 cup water and 1 packet of Knox gelatin in a medium saucepan. Heat until just boiling.
    2 1/2 teaspoons Knox unflavored gelatin
  • Remove from the heat and pour in vodka and sweetened condensed milk. Stir to combine. Allow the mixture to cool completely.
    12 ounces sweetened condensed milk, 1 ½ cups vodka
  • Once the mixture has cooled, pour it into your Jello shot cups on top of the green layer. Each cup should now be about ⅔ of the way full. You can discard any remaining white gelatin mixture.
  • Move the cups back to the refrigerator to chill for another 2 hours.
  • To make the final layer, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the orange Jello mix, whisking until dissolved.
    1 box orange jello, 4 cups water
  • Add ½ cup cold water and ½ cup vodka, then stir to combine. Allow the orange Jello mixture to cool completely.
    4 cups water, 1 ½ cups vodka
  • Once the Jello has cooled, fill your shot cups the remainder of the way with the orange layer. Move the cups back to the refrigerator to chill for 2 more hours, or until ready to serve.
  • Before serving, top with whipped cream and orange and green sprinkles.
    Whipped cream for topping, Green and orange sprinkles for topping

Notes

It's always a little tempting but be sure you don't add too much vodka or your Jello cups may not set.
