Ingredients
Scale
Gelatin Mixture
- 1 box (3 ounces) lime or green apple gelatin (or any green-flavored gelatin)
- 1 cup boiling water
- ½ cup cold water
- ½ cup non-alcoholic apple juice or another fruit juice
- Green food coloring (optional)
Garnish
- Whipped cream
- Green sprinkles or edible glitter
- Mini shamrock-shaped candies
Instructions
- Prepare the Jello Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the gelatin powder with boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved. Add cold water and non-alcoholic apple juice, mixing thoroughly. Add a few drops of green food coloring if you want the jello shots to have a more vibrant green color.
- Pour into Shot Glasses: Arrange shot glasses or small cups on a baking sheet for stability. Carefully pour the jello mixture into each glass, filling about three-quarters full to allow room for garnish.
- Chill and Set: Place the filled shot glasses into the refrigerator. Let them chill for 2 to 4 hours, or until the gelatin is firm to the touch and fully set.
- Garnish and Serve: Once set, remove the jello shots from the refrigerator. Top each shot with a dollop of whipped cream, then sprinkle green edible glitter or green sprinkles and add mini shamrock-shaped candies to make them look festive and inviting.
Notes
- Use any green-flavored gelatin if lime or green apple is not available.
- Non-alcoholic juice keeps this recipe suitable for all ages and preferences.
- For stronger green color, use green food coloring sparingly.
- Chilling time may vary depending on refrigerator temperature; ensure gelatin is fully set before serving.
- Garnishes are optional but add a fun and festive touch.
