Purple Passion Jello Shots

Posted by Nicole on August 19th 2009 in Drink of the Week, Shots, Summer Cocktails

These are by far the best jello shots ever created! They taste like grape candy and people just devour them…then they wonder what hit them when the buzz comes out of nowhere!

Purple Passion Jello Shots

6 ounces Grape Jello (large box)
8 ounces Water (boiling)
4 ounces Amaretto
1 ounce Vodka
4 ounces Water (cold)

Mix the jello mix with the boiling water until the powder is fully dissolved and then add the rest of the water and the alcohol. Pour the mixture into either shot glasses or paper cups. Shot glasses are more attractive, but the paper cups are easier to eat from.
