Method
How to make a Vodka Jelly Shot

Serves 1 · Takes 3 minutes
Make jelly according to the instructions on the packet
Leave to cool for some time and stir occasionally so mixture does not set
When it is still warm and liquid, add the vodka
Separate into shot glasses and put into the fridge until it is fully set, and serve
~ Although this recipe seems simple (vodka and jelly -> fridge), be careful of a couple of considerations. Firstly, don't boil the vodka or the alcohol will evaporate. Secondly, don't add the vodka into the boiling jelly mixture, let it cool a little first. Experiment with the quantities to get the potency you are after. Don't overkill on the vodka or the vodka jelly shots wont set, but you can go something along the lines of 50/50 mixture of jelly/water and vodka. One packet of jelly makes eight double shots ~
