Why This is the Peach Jello Shot Recipe You Want to Make

Many of the recipes out there call for peach gelatin and regular vodka. Using peach-flavored schnapps intensifies the peach flavor. These little shots are super peachy, sweet, smooth, and perfect for a summer party. This is one of the party favorites at my house, so it’s a can’t miss recipe. This is made with simple ingredients, so this is an excellent beginner jello shots recipe.

How to Take a Jello Shot Like an Expert

No experience with Jello shots? No problem. Use these tips to look like you know what you are doing!

• Use a toothpick to loosen the Jello from the sides of the shot glass before attempting to pop it into your mouth. Adding a toothpick is particularly important if the Jello shot is in a glass shot glass because squeezing the sides of a plastic shot glass is usually enough for the Jello to come out.
• Whatever you do, don’t stir the Jello or try to use your tongue to try to remove it from the shot glass. You will wind up making everyone else giggle.
• Once you have the Jello shot in your mouth, don’t chew or try to swallow it in one big chunk. Swish it around like mouthwash until it breaks down enough to swallow.
• Jello shots have about half the alcohol of a usual shot, but it is easy to overdo it due to the novelty factor. Pace yourself and drink responsibly.

• Orange Jello and Vodka.According to legend, the first real Jello shot was created by the comedic songwriter and Ivy League mathematics professor, Tom Lehrer. Supposedly, he made a batch of orange Jello and vodka Jello shooters to get around a ban on alcoholic beverages on military bases during his time in the Army in the 1950s.
