Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup cold water
- 1 package (3 oz) red gelatin (strawberry or cherry flavor)
- 1 package (3 oz) green gelatin (lime flavor)
- 1 cup vodka
- 1 cup whipped cream (for topping)
Instructions
- Dissolve the red gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved.
- Add 1/2 cup of cold water and 1/2 cup of vodka to the red gelatin mixture. Stir well.
- Pour the red gelatin mixture into shot glasses, filling them halfway. Refrigerate until set, about 1-2 hours.
- In a separate bowl, dissolve the green gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved.
- Add 1/2 cup of cold water and 1/2 cup of vodka to the green gelatin mixture. Stir well.
- Once the red layer is set, carefully pour the green gelatin mixture on top of the red layer in each shot glass. Refrigerate until fully set, about 1-2 hours.
- Once both layers are set, top each shot with a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
Notes
- For a non-alcoholic version, replace vodka with cold water or a flavored soda.
- Make sure to let each layer set completely before adding the next layer to avoid mixing.
- These can be made a day in advance for convenience.
