10 lemons, *one box watermelon (or any kind of pink color) jello * 1 cup vodka *1 cup boiling water - 10 lemons makes 40 jello shots -
The step by step recipe for these awesome adult treats are posted here (with photos) in my watermelon version.
Tips: I've learned so far that you must buy "Jello" brand jello or the shots are way too strong. Also I prefer the flavor that oranges or lemons lend to jello over the bitter taste of limes, but the combinations are endless!
In addition to our jello shots we had collard greens, blueberry corn muffins, pimento cheese dip, a feta and green apple salad, brown sugar and pecan cookies, deli sandwiches, a cheese and crackers spread, and more.
Gold Cup was so much fun that we already have our outfits and menu planned out for next year. Photo credits to Maggie Mae's fiance Ben, who did a great job making all of us look amazing.

ReplyDeletecute idea! i just stumbled across these while researching a fun jello shot idea for this weekend. might have to try 'em out! ps - how fun is goldcup?! i went last year with some virginia friends + always try to go to Steeplechase, Nashville's version. always such a blast!
ReplyDeletei made these this weekend, but with rum instead - AMAZING! they tasted like watermelon Jolly Rancher candies... addicting. thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletewhat do you do to the rhine to make the jello not taste so bitter?
ReplyDeleteHey Patty, the shots actually taste good with a little of the lemony flavor, they aren't bitter at all because you remove all of the lemon fruit. :)
ReplyDeletethese are completely adorable. nice job! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are so cool looking. I'm wondering if using lemon jello and iced tea vodka to make an "Arnold Palmer"-type shot would work. I'll have to give that a shot. If anyone's done that or wants to try it and let me know cause I know it'll be awhile before I can get around to trying it.
ReplyDeleteLove these sweet jello shots with cool colors.
