Jolly Rancher Jello Shots (that actually set)
Recipe #25 of 103 from the rebuilt chain-email list. Makes 12 one-ounce shots. Fifteen minutes of work, four hours in the fridge.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Mountain Dew
- 1 box melon jello
- 1/4 cup vodka + 1/4 cup apple pucker
- Pam or other cooking spray, for the cups
Method
- Bring 1 cup Mountain Dew to a boil in a pot twice the size you think you need; it foams.
- Off the heat, whisk in 1 box melon jello until there is no grit, a full two minutes.
- Stir in 1/4 cup vodka + 1/4 cup apple pucker. That is your cooling liquid; no cold water anywhere.
- Pour into 1 oz cups sprayed with Pam.
- Fridge four hours minimum. Overnight is better.
Why it sets when the old recipe didn't. The 2010 list used a cup of water and a cup of
booze per box. Alcohol fights gelatin; fifty-fifty loses. This is soda instead of water (sugar and flavor
both help), booze at a third, and half the liquid the box asks for, all of it hot. Jiggler strength.
The full method, and eleven more like this one, are free on the jello page.

Every one converted to the rule, the soda matched to the jello, the proof flagged. One PDF.
