Translate the flavor of a margarita into a Jell-O shot.
Margarita Jell-O shots are an unexpected twist on the usual vodka version. You'll need the traditional margarita flavors and ingredients, and a few hours to prepare and chill the shots. Make these drinks the centerpiece of a Mexican- or beach-themed party, or include them as an option in a well-rounded drink menu.
Instructions
1. Bring 2 cups of water to a complete boil.
2. Mix the lime Jell-O with the boiled water until the powder is dissolved. Let the Jell-O cool to room temperature.
3. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of white tequila, 1/4 cup of orange liqueur and 1/4 cup of lime juice. Make sure everything is thoroughly mixed.
4. Pour the Jell-O mixture carefully into the souffle cups or shot glasses and place them in the refrigerator.
5. Chill the Jell-O shots until they are well set, about six hours. Remove them from the refrigerator just before you plan to serve them.
