    Default Jello Shots

    How are doing Jello shots compared to just downing a shot of pure liqour? Like do the Jello shots take longer to feel than just doing a shot, or are they the same, etc.

    When I used to make jello shot s for parties I"d make it like 1 Cup liquor to 1 cup water and I'd say one jello shooter would equal 2 shots? I don't know the exact science, but they are great! But very messy make sure you get the clear hawaiian kind, I was scrubbing red jello out of my dad's white carpet for hours.

    Oh they're potent! I got trashed off jello shooters at a few events! You don't taste the alcohol as much, so you just don't think they're as strong as a regular shot.

    Man...fun times!

    Depending on the 'recipe' you use to make it, I'd think they're about the same as regular shots. Although, for some reason, it always seems like a great idea to use everclear AND vodka.. so I can usually taste the liquor (vodka) and that keeps me from drinking a gallon of it. But if you're just using everclear, it can be easy to get trashed without realizing it.

    I made a total of 37 shots using 26 ounces of Vodka so it's like 70% of a shot per cup I think, around there.

    Yeah, that math sounds about right. But, remember at the bar, the drinks are usually stronger/have more liquor than what the 'measured' amount should be.. but it's safer to have less potent shots, like Sinder said, it's easy to get wasted off jello shots!

    Hmmm I tried two, so that's like 1 1/2 shots. It's so weird not being able to taste the alcohol, especially when I just can't handle hard liqour. This is awesome haha.

    Salt will lift red wine out of a carpet, so it might do it with red jello as well. Just bury the stain in salt, let it soak up into the salt, then vacuum it up. Repeat as needed.

    Doesn't the sugar make the alcohol mess you up even faster? I got totally wasted on Jello shots a few years back, mainly because I couldn't taste the alcohol and didn't think they were all that strong. Kind of like Long Island Ice Teas. They go down like nothing, but Sh!t, they mess you up fast!

    I have no idea but I can feel the two Jello shots after about 5 minutes.

    That's a good question. I heard that if you use diet cola as a mixer, it makes drinks get you drunk faster, for example rum and diet coke, instead of rum and coke.. idk if that has to do with the sugar though.

    don't eat the whole batch girl!! haha

    ^Haha I'd probably die if I ate all 37, which would be a whole bottle of Vodka. It is hard not to keep eating them though and letting them kick in.

    Well my BF does not do alcohol at all, so I'm stuck with myself for all these shots lol. I've had 4 so far which is like 3 full shots. I have a feeling I'm getting wasted tonight.

    i cant remember what kind of liquor it was, but you take the shot and then follow it with a dink of mountain dew (without breathing in between!!!!!!) and it tastes like a gummi bear (lol) you dont even taste the liquor!!!!! i think it was rasberry something.....or absolute something (some kind of berry flavor, but it was clear) but as you can tell, i dont really drink. those jello shots do you a job though! they r fun!
