First, start by boiling the water. Once the water is boiling, add the Jello and stir until it's completely dissolved.
Next, add the alcohol. The amount you'll need will depend on how strong you want your Jello shots to be. Then add the cold water and stir till combined.
Place the Jello shots in the fridge and let them set for at least 2 hours. Once they're firm, add an unwrapped Pink Starburst (strawberry flavored) candy on top. Add the lid to the top and serve chilled!
Store any remaining leftovers in the fridge with the lids on for up to a week.
Notes
Recipe Variations
Use different types of alcohol. Vodka is the most popular choice, but rum, tequila, and even whisky work well.
Switch up the flavors. While pink is a popular choice, I think the red would be good also with a red Starburst on top.
Make layered Jello shots. If you want to get really creative, try layering jello shots. To do this, make two different types of jello with liquor. Add one layer to a cup, put in fridge to set for 2 hours. Then, repeat with other flavors.
