So, for those of you who make jello shots while on STJ...what are you favorite jello shot recipes?
I can't believe I'm asking a liquor question at 7:40 in the morning.

I like to use 1 cup of Cruzan Rum in place of 1 cup of cold water. One of my favorites is pineapple rum & orange jello. Raspberry rum with just about any jello is good too.

Hi betsyabel - thnx for answering, those sound like awesome jello shots.

I use condiment cups that you can order online or buy at a party supply store. They have covers too, so it's easy to stack a bunch in the fridge
When I tried the paper ones, some of the shots stuck to them.

Agree with betsyable on the condiment cups, love the lids too! Everything neat, tidy, and stackable in the cooler. We like pineapple or coconut rum with lime jello, or either of those rums with orange jello!....Mostly any flavor rum with any flavor jello! to quote skittles, "taste the rainbow"

Thnx ski2play - I'm heading out to the Party1 store and hope to find the plastic ones with the lids. Surely they'll have them.
We'll go "skittles" way and taste the rainbow, sounds like a good rule to live by!

I like Cruzan Mango with Peach Jello!
And Stoli Blackberry with Raspberry Jello!
I get my little plastic cups at our local restaurant supply. They come in a sleeve of 50, I believe, with the lids in a separate sleeve.

To be honest, my favorite approach is to say "BevM, how many jello shots you makin' today?" She never seems to run out.
Cheers, RickG
