How to Make Pumpkin Spice Latte Jello Shots
Step One: Start by bringing your cold brew coffee to a low boil.
Step Two: Next add in the gelatin, sweetened condensed milk, whisking to combine. Add in the pumpkin spice and mix well.
Step Three: Next you will add in the cold water or if you are doing alcohol then do so.
Step Four: Add in the cups and refrigerate to set the Jello up. Then once firm add green straws to cups, and top with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon.
Storing
To Store: You will want to store these pumpkin spice shots in the fridge for up to a week. I recommend not adding the whipped cream until right before serving. Whipped cream will break down a bit as it sits.
Can I use espresso instead of cold brew coffee?
Yes, you can use espresso in a swap of cold brew coffee. The flavor will be stronger of course but if you enjoy espresso this will be a great compliment to the jello shots. Just use the same amount as you would the coffee.
How long will it take these jello shots to set up?
You will want to allow them to set up for 4-6 hours to overnight. Depending on how big your cups are will vary in how quickly the jello sets.
Is cold brew different than cold coffee?
Cold brew and cold coffee are not the exact same. Cold brew is brewed differently and offers a smoother texture than a classic cold coffee. Feel free to use cold coffee if you would like, but you might notice the flavor to be a bit different than a classic cold brew.
