How to Make Your Tie Dye Jello Shots
Step 1. Sprinkle the gelatin over hot water, and let sit for 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
Step 2. Stir gelatin to dissolve completely. Then add the vodka, and stir well to blend.
Step 3. Place 12 shot glasses on a tray or cookie sheet that will fit in the refrigerator.
Fill each shot glass half full of the gelatin/vodka mixture.
Using toothpicks or a small spoon, place a small amount of the food coloring gel on the end of a toothpick, and stir a different color of the food coloring gel into the cups (i.e., Neon Pink, Aqua, Yellow, and Green. You can make these any color you choose, or all one color if you prefer).
Step 4. Place in the refrigerator for an hour to set.
Step 5. Remove from the refrigerator, and fill shot glasses with remaining gelatin.
Using toothpicks, place a small amount of the food coloring gel on the end of the toothpick, and color the top layer in an opposite color, to make the jello shots appear to be tie-dyed.
Step 6. Place back in the refrigerator to set completely, at least 2 hours for best results.
Step 7. Serve, and enjoy!
