Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (3 oz) orange Jell-O
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup vodka
  • 1 box (3 oz) lemon Jell-O
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1/2 cup vodka
  • 1 packet (about 1 tablespoon) unflavored gelatin
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup vodka
  • 1/2 cup boiling water

Instructions

  1. Arrange 24 plastic shot cups on a baking sheet.
  2. For the orange layer: In a small bowl, empty the orange Jell-O packet. Add 1 cup boiling water and stir for 2 minutes until dissolved. Add 1/2 cup cold water and 1/2 cup vodka. Stir. Pour about 1 tablespoon into each cup. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until set.
  3. For the yellow layer: In a clean bowl, empty the lemon Jell-O packet. Add 1 cup boiling water and stir until dissolved. Add 1/2 cup cold water and 1/2 cup vodka. Stir. Gently pour about 1 tablespoon over the set orange layer. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until set.
  4. For the white layer: In a small bowl, sprinkle unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water. Let sit for 5 minutes to bloom. In another bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and 1/2 cup vodka. Heat 1/2 cup water to boiling, then pour over bloomed gelatin and stir until dissolved. Pour gelatin mixture into condensed milk mixture and stir gently. Let cool for 5 minutes. Carefully pour about 1 tablespoon over the set yellow layer. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
  5. Once all layers are set, cover cups with lids and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve cold.

Notes

Patience is key: let each layer set fully before adding the next. Use a turkey baster for precise pouring. Let the white layer cool before pouring to avoid melting the yellow layer. Make a day ahead for best flavor and texture. For non-alcoholic version, replace vodka with cold water.
