Lime Margarita Spiderweb Jello Shots
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Measuring cups
- Toothpick
- Plastic shot cups
Ingredients
- 1 package (3 oz) lime gelatin
- 1 cup boiling water
- ½ cup cold water
- ½ cup tequila
- ¼ cup fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons orange liqueur
- 1 teaspoon black food coloring
- 8 small plastic shot cups
Instructions
- Pour the lime gelatin into a mixing bowl and add the boiling water. Stir until the gelatin fully dissolves.
- Add the cold water, tequila, fresh lime juice, and orange liqueur to the bowl. Stir until the mixture is smooth and combined.
- Divide a small portion of the mixture into a separate small bowl and stir in the black food coloring until the color is even.
- Fill each plastic shot cup about three-quarters full with the green mixture. Let the cups sit for 10 minutes so the surface firms slightly.
- Dip a toothpick into the black mixture and draw thin lines across the surface of each shot to form a spiderweb pattern. Repeat for all cups.
- Place the cups in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours until fully set.
Notes
Use a fine-tipped brush or toothpick for cleaner web lines and work quickly before the surface sets too firm. If the black mixture thickens, warm it gently for a few seconds to loosen it again. These shots taste best served cold straight from the fridge.
