  • 1 small package Orange
  • 1 cupboiling Water
  • 1 cup Tequila

Instructions

If when making Jello shots you have to remember that they are very potent and it is very easy to lose track of how many drinks you have due to the sweet taste and sometimes low alcohol flavor. Even experienced drinkers can go overboard. If you are going to have a Jello shots party knock down the alcohol portion to 1/4 cup alcohol with 3/4 cup Water.Bring 1 cup of Water to a boil. Pour the Water into a bowl and stir in 1 package of Orange Jello for 2 minutes or until the Jello is completely dissolved. Allow the Jello Mix to cool for a little while before adding the Tequila, this will help prevent alcohol loss. When the Mix is cool Mix in your favorite brand of Tequila. If desired spray cups with PAM cooking spray to prevent sticking. (Don't worry you will not taste it) Pour into shot glasses or small plastic cup Chill for at least 4 hours for it to set. Serve

About Tequila Sunrise Jello Shot

The Tequila Sunrise Jello Shot is a playful and vibrant twist on the classic cocktail, capturing the essence of a sunrise with its bold orange hue and refreshing citrus flavor. This jello shot combines a small package of orange-flavored gelatin with one cup of boiling water and one cup of tequila, creating a delightful treat that's perfect for parties and gatherings. The result is a fun, portable version of the popular Tequila Sunrise cocktail, known for its beautiful gradient of colors resembling a morning sunrise.

The original Tequila Sunrise cocktail was created in the 1930s at the Arizona Biltmore Hotel and gained widespread popularity in the 1970s thanks to its vibrant appearance and refreshing taste. The jello shot version retains the spirit of the original drink, offering a modern and playful way to enjoy the iconic flavors of orange and tequila. This jiggly creation is ideal for those looking to add a touch of whimsy and nostalgia to their cocktail repertoire, while still delivering the classic taste of a Tequila Sunrise in a fun, bite-sized form.

This shot is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Shot Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
