Ingredients

24 plastic shot glasses
2 12-count muffin tins
3 oz. box grape Jell-O
2 envelopes Knox plain gelatin, divided
2 cups cold vodka, divided
3 oz. box lemon Jell-O

Directions

1. Step 1Prepare shot glasses by placing each one in an individual muffin tin cavity and leaning them at an angle so they’re tilted at about 45 degrees.
2. Step 2For purple layer: In a medium saucepan, mix together 1 cup water with grape Jell-O and sprinkle 1 envelope gelatin on top. Allow mixture to sit for 1 minute, then whisk everything together; heat on medium until it reaches a simmer. Add 1 cup vodka and whisk together. Place 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons purple Jell-O into each of plastic shot glass and place in fridge for about 30 minutes.
3. Step 3For yellow layer: In a medium saucepan, mix together 1 cup water with lemon Jell-O and sprinkle 1 envelope gelatin on top. Allow mixture to sit for 1 minute, then whisk everything together; heat on medium until it reaches a simmer. Add 1 cup vodka and whisk together. Allow mixture to cool down to room temperature, and turn all shot glasses so they’re upright again. Once cooled, fill each shot glass up until even with top edge of purple layer (this will be about another 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons). Refrigerate again for at least 3 hours before serving so Jell-O shots are completely set.
