I think STJ Jello Shot recipes are always in good taste.

Gromit taught me that there is ALWAYS room for Jello.

We put them into serynges SP that are used for cattle so you just squeeze them into your mouth. I'll look up our pudding shot recipe

If you can find it (it usually comes out in the summer)they make a Margarita jello. I use tequila along with the water and they're awesome!

We have a Halloween Party every year and I make jello brains. I put the brain mold on a bed of linguine with eyeballs, snakes, worms, bats, etc. Everyone digs in with a spoon! Disgusting but they love it!!

Wow. It's like a rainbow for the liver!
Maybe some for our wedding reception at Sago Palms this November...

Mine is with alcohol but it's equally great for a kids party without. The grosser the better! I also make Rice Krispy treats. Put orange food coloring in the marshmallow and press gummy worms in to the squares, like they're crawling out. Kids love it!

Alrighty then...could someone please tell me how my rather "tasteful" post about yummy island Jell-o shots turned into talk about disgusting Jell-o brains and gross Rice Krispie treats with worms crawling out of them!

I shutter to think of what will become of me if I continue to hang around with you guys!

AH....I'm totally sorry! I didn't mean to hijack your thread! I'm the Jello Shot Queen so I'm always thinking of interesting ways to do them. My friends went through 1000 of them at my birthday party. I really love your ideas and plan to use them..Forgive me.

Ok Bev! I would like to order up some Coral Bay Jello Shots! Do Jello shots combine well with hot tubs?

bevm · Post by **bevm** » Wed Apr 15, 2009 6:54 pm

I could whip up a batch or two! You'll get tanked a bit faster in the hot tub but who cares??
But I make mine with flavored vodka...does it matter to you?
