  • Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 12 shots

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 packet (3 oz) blue flavored gelatin
  • 1 packet (3 oz) purple flavored gelatin
  • 1/2 cup boiling water per flavor
  • 1/4 cup cold water per flavor
  • 2 tbsp vodka (optional, for adult version)
  • Edible glitter (silver or iridescent)
  • Clear shot glasses

Instructions

  1. Dissolve blue gelatin powder in 1/2 cup boiling water. Stir in 1/4 cup cold water and optionally 2 tbsp vodka. Mix in a pinch of edible glitter.
  2. Pour blue layer into shot glasses, filling about 1/3 full. Refrigerate 20–25 minutes until set but still slightly soft.
  3. Repeat with purple gelatin to create the second layer.
  4. Chill final shots for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • For a kid-friendly version, omit vodka and use juice (like grape or blueberry) instead of water.
  • Use LED tea lights or blacklight to make the shots glow dramatically.
  • Pre-gelatin layers can be piped for cleaner separation if desired.
