  1. Hello. I have strawberry jello in my pantry and Jose Cuervo Lime margarita mix. You think the flavor would be good? I’m thinking it will have like a strawberry lime flavor

  2. When you say “small box”, how many servings is that? I have the boxes that have 8.5 servings, and I really think those might be the big boxes. Should I just double everything else?

  3. Hi there, yes basically. Boil 1 cup water, dissolve jello in, then add 1 cup Jose Cuervo Strawberry Lime Margarita (Tequila included) or 1/2 cup Jose Cuervo Strawberry Lime Margarita Mix + 1/2 cup Tequila. 🙂

  4. So as a newbie you jist make the jello as normal but add the ready mix or am i mossing a step?

  5. Actually Nancy, there is, but I posted the wrong picture of margarita tequila mix, but it’s updated for both margarita mixes now. Ugh…would it be ok to admit I was taste testing and that MAY have affected my brain. Thank you for catching that…I think I owe you some Jell-O shots? 🙂 Happy Labor Day Weekend!

  6. The mix does not have Tequila – you have to buy the bottle WITH alcohol in it. 🙂
