CAN I MAKE THESE CHAMPAGNE JELLO SHOTS AHEAD OF TIME?

  • Yes, you can! Jello shots last in the fridge for up to 5 days so they are great for making ahead of a party.

HOW SHOULD I STORE THESE CHAMPAGNE JELLO SHOTS?

  • Whether you plan on making these jello shots ahead of time or have any leftovers to store, it’s always best to cover your shot cups with some plastic wrap. This is merely to ensure that your shots don’t absorb any other aromas that you may have from other foods in your fridge.

TIPS FOR MAKING CHAMPAGNE JELLO SHOTS

  • I specifically used gelatin for these jello shots as it’s flavorless and I want the champagne flavor and color to shine through. There’s nothing stopping you from ditching the gelatin and using jello instead. You will need to adapt the recipe though as 1 packet of unflavored gelatin contains about 2 ½ teaspoons. To get 2 ½ teaspoons of gelatin from jello, you will need approximately 6 tablespoons of jello and you may then need to increase your recipe liquids.
  • As this recipe uses colorless gelatin, you could add some food coloring in should you want a splash of color without having to go the route of using jello instead.
  • I use clear souffle/jello shot cups so that the glitter and beauty of this jello shot can be fully appreciated!
