6 ounce Water
6 ounce Vodka

Recipe 2

Things You Will Need

8 ounces (1 cup) Boiling Water
3 oz. package Jello Gelatin
3 ounces Cold Water
6 ounces (3/4 cup) Chilled Alcohol

Instructions

First of all, you need to pour water in a pan and place it on flame.
After the water comes to a rolling boil, remove the pan from heat.
Pour boiling water in a mixing bowl and add gelatin. Keep on stirring the water till the time gelatin gets dissolved completely.
Add water to the dissolved gelatin, followed by alcohol, and mix well.
Get a few cups/ shot glasses and spray their inside with cooking spray. This way, the Jello will easily slide out of them during use.
Pour the Jello mixture into the cups/ shot glasses, individual shot-size being 1oz-2oz.
Place the cups/ shot glasses in the refrigerator (not the freezer) and allow to chill till they become firm. Refrigerate until served.

Alcohol Proportion

You will have to decide the alcohol proportion to cold water, in the Jello shots, depending upon the proof of alcohol you use. Generally, the following proportions are made use of:

13 ounces of 30-50 (~20%) proof alcohol to 3 ounces cold water
10 ounces 80-100 (~45%) proof alcohol to 6 ounces cold water
6 ounces 150-200 proof alcohol to 10 ounces cold water

Some Tips

An ounce is a unit of weight equal to equal to 437.5 grains / 1/16^th pound. So, you can adjust the measurements accordingly.
While making Jello shots, chill alcohol at least one hour before. Keep it in the refrigerator, not freezer. Otherwise, the alcohol might freeze and result in breaking of the bottle.
Rather than cups/ shot glasses, you can make use of paper cups for chilling the Jello. This is because the latter can be squeezed easily, forcing the Jello into your mouth.
