Ingredients
- 3 oz Grape Jello
- 8 oz boiling water
- 8 oz Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka
- 2 Grape Jolly Ranchers
Instructions
- In a microwavable bowl, combine water and the grape Jolly Ranchers. Microwave until the water is boiling and the Jolly Ranchers are fully melted, stirring occasionally.
- Pour the grape jello powder into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Carefully pour the hot water/Jolly Rancher mixture over the grape jello powder. Whisk thoroughly until all jello granules are completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Add in the Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka and mix well to combine all ingredients.
- Pour the mixture into non-stick sprayed shot glasses or small containers. This recipe is designed to yield a good number of shots, so prepare enough vessels.
- Place the filled shot glasses in the refrigerator to cool and allow the jello to set firmly. This usually takes at least 2-4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Once set, serve your captivating “Purple Raven” Jello Shots and let the celebration begin!
Notes
**Important:** Always adhere to the recommended alcohol ratio. Alcohol has a lower freezing point than water, and adding too much will prevent the jello from setting properly. For some combinations, especially with higher proof liquors, you might need to slightly reduce the amount of alcohol to achieve the desired gel consistency.

Yellow Layer
- 3 oz. Pineapple Jello
- 8 oz. boiling water
- 8 oz. Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka
White Layer
- ¼ cup sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup coconut milk
- ¼ cup water
- 2 packets Knox Gelatin
- 1 cup Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka
Instructions
Start with Orange Layer
- In a medium bowl, pour the boiling water over the orange jello powder and whisk until the jello granules are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Add in the Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka and mix well to thoroughly combine.
- Carefully pour the orange jello mixture into non-stick sprayed shot glasses or containers, filling each about one-third (1/3) of the way.
- Place the shot glasses in the refrigerator to cool and gel for approximately 30-45 minutes, or until the layer is firm enough to support the next layer.
Yellow Layer
- In a separate medium bowl, pour the boiling water over the pineapple jello powder and whisk until the jello granules are fully melted.
- Add in the Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka and mix well.
- Carefully retrieve the orange Jello shots from the fridge. Gently pour the pineapple Jello mixture over the set orange layer, filling each shot another one-third (1/3) of the way, making each shot two-thirds (2/3) full.
- Return the shots to the refrigerator to cool and gel for another 30-45 minutes, or until this yellow layer is also firm.
White Layer
- In a small saucepan, sprinkle the Knox gelatin over the coconut milk, water, and sweetened condensed milk. Let it sit for a few minutes to bloom.
- Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously, until the gelatin fully dissolves and the mixture is smooth. Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and let it cool until just warm. Then, mix in the remaining 1 cup of Smirnoff Whipped Cream flavored Vodka, stirring thoroughly.
- Take the orange/pineapple Jello shots out of the fridge. Carefully pour the white jello mixture over the yellow layer, filling each shot to the top.
- Place all the finished shots back into the refrigerator to cool and gel for another 30-45 minutes, or until all layers are completely firm.
- For an extra festive touch, garnish with mini candy corn pieces or a dollop of whipped cream (or both!) just before serving.

Pin Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 oz box Jolly Ranchers green apple gelatin
- 1 cup boiling water
- 4-5 ice cubes
- ¼ cup Sour Apple Pucker (schnapps)
- ¼ cup green apple flavored vodka
Instructions
- Pour the Jolly Ranchers green apple gelatin powder into a medium mixing bowl. Add the boiling water and whisk vigorously until the gelatin is completely dissolved, leaving no granules.
- Immediately add the ice cubes to the hot gelatin mixture. Stir well until all the ice cubes have melted. This step helps to cool the mixture quickly, preparing it for the alcohol.
- Once the ice has melted and the mixture has cooled, stir in the Sour Apple Pucker and the green apple flavored vodka. Mix thoroughly to ensure the alcohol is evenly distributed.
- Carefully pour the ‘Witches Brew’ mixture into non-stick sprayed shot glasses or containers.
- Place the filled shot glasses in the refrigerator to cool and gel. Allow at least one to two hours for the jello to set completely. For optimal firmness, chilling for several hours or overnight is recommended.
- Once firm, serve your mystical ‘Witches Brew’ Jello Shots and bewitch your guests!
Notes
**Important:** It is crucial not to add more alcohol than specified in the recipe. Alcohol lowers the freezing point, which can prevent the jello from setting into a solid gel. If using a liquor with a higher alcohol content than recommended, you might need to slightly reduce its quantity to ensure your shots set correctly.
