Place Jello shot cups or plastic shot glasses on a shallow baking sheet that fits into the refrigerator.
Bring 1½ cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove the hot water from the heat and whisk in the green Jello mix, stirring until the Jello is completely dissolved.
3 cups water, 3 ounces lime jello
Stir ½ cup vodka into the gelatin mixture.
1 cup vodka
Pour the green Jello evenly into the plastic cups, filling each about halfway to the top. Move them to the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours.
After the green Jello has set, prepare the red layer. Bring 1½ cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove water from the heat and whisk in the red Jello, stirring until dissolved.
3 cups water, 3 ounces strawberry jello
Stir in ½ cup of vodka.
1 cup vodka
Allow the red Jello mixture to cool completely, then pour it evenly into the shot cups on top of the green layer. Move the shots back to the refrigerator to chill for another 2 hours.
Before serving, top with whipped cream and Christmas sprinkles.

Be careful not to add too much vodka to your shots, or the Jello will not set properly.
To make a non-alcoholic version, substitute cold water for the vodka.
Be sure that the green Jello layer is completely set and the red Jello mixture has cooled to room temperature before adding the red layer. Otherwise, your colors may run together.
