Jello Shots Skewers
Ingredients
Instructions
Prepare each gelatin flavor separately
-
-
In a small bowl, sprinkle the flavored gelatin over 1/4 cup of the cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to soften (called "blooming").
-
Pour the boiling water over the softened gelatin and whisk until completely dissolved.
-
Stir in 1/4 cup of Hacienda de Tepa tequila.
-
Pour the flavored gelatin mixture into a shallow dish or small container. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
-
Repeat this process for each flavored gelatin you're using.
Assemble the skewers (once all gelatin layers are set):
-
-
Cut each flavored gelatin layer into small cubes.
-
Arrange the cubes in a pattern on a plate or cutting board. You can create stripes, a rainbow pattern, or any design you like.
-
If using fruit, intersperse the fruit pieces with the jello cubes as you build your skewer.
-
Using a skewer, carefully pierce through the bottom of each cube, sliding them together in your chosen pattern.
Note
TIPS:
- To make the jello set firmer, you can add an optional packet of unflavored gelatin to each flavored gelatin mixture before adding the boiling water.
- For an extra pop of color, you can tint the unflavored gelatin with a few drops of food coloring before adding it to the flavored gelatin mixture.
- To prevent the jello from drying out, assemble the skewers just before serving and keep them chilled until ready to enjoy.
