^^supplies, cheap sh|t vodka, bunch of jello packets, and some dixie cups


it says add one cup of boiling water, dissolve the jello, and add a cup of room temp/cold water. Should I just add the one boiling cup of water, then just use vodka for the second cup? Or should I use the normal amount of water and just add extra vodka?

stupid california = no liquor above 151 proof. :(

if i ever go out of state i'm getting some good ol' pure ethanol.

Horse hooves, among other things. No one really cares though - jello is almost tasteless. Plus jello shots are meant to get buzzed easy at parties

If you want some easy hitters for the ladies, use schnapps 1:1 with water. They set really hard, sometimes the vodka ones are a little runny.

ooh... vanilla schnapps and orange jello might = creamsicle shots?

peach schnapps and orange jello might = fuzzy navel shots?

you are all morons. You can't use the same volume of water and vodka. The shots will never really set up and people will be trying to lick them out of the bottom of the cups. You need to have about 2/3 the volume of liquid as the box says. Use 2/3 of a cup of water, and then 2/3 a cup of vodka as the cold stuff. Then freeze b4 party.

Yeah isn't it hoof shavings? That's why they aren't Kosher. Same goes for Skittles.

The reason for mixing hot & cold water is to accelerate the cooling process with some evaporation. With vodka it doesn't matter so much, but your freezer needs to be MUCH colder or it won't set ever (crank it as low as it goes).

Also, use double ratio of jello mix to liquid. This will help mask the alchohol taste. Or maybe this doesn't really matter with 80 proof...

Well, I've always mixed 1c hot H2O and 1c alcohol and they've always come out fine for me.
