Party Time!! Who wants some Jell-O Shots?
Me, Me, Me!! 😎
Most of us know a Tequila Sunrise is a classic tequila drink with orange juice and grenadine that rises from the bottom and simulates a sunrise. So pretty, right??!!!
Well…This jello shot is a REVERSE tequila sunrise, so it’s flip-flopped, thus being called the “Flip-Flop” Tequila Sunrise Jello Shot.
Pretty cool, huh? Fruity and fun!!
Being this is Labor Day weekend, the term “flip-flop” reminds me of relaxing, being on the beach and slurping on these fun and tasty alcoholic jello shots. Winning!
Did you know Labor Day refers to honoring workers and recognizing their contributions to society.
So, celebrate and make these jello shots for your family and friends this holiday weekend! Let’s *Cheers* to all the laborers!
*Cheers!*
Have a fun and safe weekend! Here’s the recipe party peeps!!
"Flip Flop" Tequila Sunrise Jell-O Shots
Ingredients
Orange Layer
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 small package Orange Jell-O 3 oz.
- 1 cup Tequila
Cherry Layer
- 1 cup boiling water I added 1/2 cherry juice, 1/2 water for this layer
- 1 small package of Cherry Jell-O 3 oz.
- 1 cup Tequila
- Maraschino Cherries for tops of shots
Instructions
- Place shot glasses on baking sheets and spray with non-stick spray.
Orange Layer
- Boil water for Orange Layer. Dissolve Orange Jell-O into boiled water. Add tequila and stir.
- Fill jell-o mix into each shot cup up to 2/3rds full. Chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
- Repeat the Jell-O making process by mixing the second layer of Cherry Jell-O, tequila and boiling water/cherry mixture.
- Pull out the set cups from the refrigerator. Pour the second layer into the cups. Place back in the refrigerator and let set, just enough to hold the next layer for 15 minutes and place the cherry on top of Cherry Jell-O layer by pressing down lightly and put back in fridge.
- After the last layer has been poured, let the final product set for at least one hour before serving.
Notes
Makes 22 - 24 Jello Shots
It sure what went wrong, but even after over night my jello did not set.
Did you add too much tequila? That will affect the outcome…
What kind of Cherry juice? Natural tart cherry juice or black cherry juice?
I used maraschino cherry juice Alicia. Hope you enjoy! xo
