Creative and Easy Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 box of red jello
• 1 box of blue jello
• 1 can of condensed milk
• 1 cup of boiling water
• 1 cup of vodka or rum (optional)
• Whipped cream (optional)
• Sprinkles (optional)

Mixing the traditional jello shot with a creamy layer, these July 4th jello shots are sure to be a hit at your holiday party. To start, prepare the red and blue jello separately according to the instructions on the box. Instead of using cold water, substitute it with vodka or rum to give your shots an extra kick. Once the jello has set, use a small cookie cutter in the shape of a star to cut out the jello and set aside.

Instructions:

1. In a small saucepan, combine the condensed milk and boiling water over low heat. Stir until fully combined and remove from heat.
2. Add red food coloring to the milk mixture until desired color is achieved.
3. Pour the red mixture into a shallow dish and let it cool for a few minutes.
4. Place the star-shaped jello cutouts into the red mixture, making sure they are not touching each other.
5. Place the dish in the refrigerator and let it set for about an hour.
6. Repeat the same process with the blue jello, using a different shallow dish and adding blue food coloring to the milk mixture.
7. Once the blue layer has set, carefully place it on top of the red layer using a spatula.
8. Return the dish to the refrigerator and let it set for another hour.
9. Once the jello has fully set, cut into squares and serve with whipped cream and sprinkles on top for an extra festive touch.

Customization Options

There are endless ways to get creative with these July 4th jello shots. Instead of using star-shaped cutouts, you can use mini flag toothpicks or red, white, and blue straws for a different look. You can also use different flavors of jello to add variety to your shots, such as cherry, raspberry, or strawberry. For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the alcohol and add more water to the milk mixture.
