Ingredients
Scale
Apple Pie Jello Shots
- 2 cups apple cider (not apple cider vinegar)
- 2 envelopes (0.25 ounces each) unflavored gelatin
- 1 1/2 cups apple whiskey, chilled
For Serving (Optional)
- Whipped cream
- Cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the cups: Place plastic jello shot cups on a sheet pan without lids and set them aside to keep organized during the pouring process.
- Dissolve gelatin: Pour the apple cider into a small saucepan and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin evenly over the liquid and stir continuously until the gelatin is fully dissolved.
- Cool gelatin mixture: Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the gelatin-apple cider mixture to cool for about 15 minutes; this prevents the alcohol from evaporating when combined.
- Mix in whiskey: Stir the chilled apple whiskey gently into the cooled gelatin mixture, ensuring an even blend without frothing.
- Fill the cups: Carefully pour the liquid mixture into the prepared plastic cups, filling each without overflowing.
- Refrigerate to set: Transfer the sheet pan with filled cups into the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or until the jello shots are fully set and firm.
- Seal and store: Once set, put lids on the cups and keep them refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain freshness.
- Garnish and serve: Optionally, top each jello shot with a dollop of whipped cream and a light sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and festive presentation.
Notes
- Use proper apple cider, not apple cider vinegar, for an authentic sweet flavor.
- Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved to achieve the best texture.
- Chilling the whiskey beforehand helps maintain the consistency of the shots.
- Allow enough chilling time to ensure the jello shots set firmly.
- Optional garnishes like whipped cream and cinnamon elevate the festive vibe.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days for optimal taste and quality.
- These jello shots contain alcohol; consume responsibly and keep out of reach of minors.
