Instructions
Blue Layer (Bottom)
- Dissolve the blue Jell-O in 1 cup of boiling water.
- Mix in 1 cup cold water.
- Pour the mixture into your 1 oz shot glasses, filling up to one-third of the way. Place in the refrigerator to set, about 2-3 hours.
White Layer (Middle)
- Sprinkle 2 packets of unflavored gelatin over 1/2 cup of cold water. Let it sit for a few minutes to “bloom.”
- Add 1 cup boiling water and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
- Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until well mixed. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
- Once the blue layer is set, gently pour the white gelatin mixture over it to fill another third of the glasses. Return to the refrigerator and let set for another 2-3 hours.
Red Layer (Top)
- Dissolve the red Jell-O in 1 cup of boiling water.
- Mix in 1 cup cold water.
- Once the white layer is set, carefully add the red layer on top, filling up to the top of the glasses. Refrigerate until set, about 2-3 hours or overnight for best results.
Garnish
- Just before serving, top each Jell-O shot with a small dollop of whipped cream.
- Sprinkle red, white, and blue sprinkles over the whipped cream for a festive finish.
