Tips for making Jello shots.

Water is used to make these jello shots. If your tap water does not come out clear, it is a good idea to use a bottled water to prevent your shots from getting cloudy.

More tips for you

1. The secret to making any kind of gelatin is to make sure that your water is bubbling when it is heated. This will make sure that the dry gelatin mix dissolved correctly and evenly.
2. Use a whisk to combine the gelatin with the water. Using a whisk will help the ingredients blend better than a spoon would.
3. It is a good idea to allow the gelatin mixture to cool a bit before filling the cups. This will make it easier to work with and preserve the integrity of the cups you are using.
4. Leftovers should be covered and refrigerated. If properly stored, they should keep for a few days.
