Apple Cider Jello Shots

This post and recipe was created for #HalloweenTreatsWeek! I was sent samples by some of the sponsor companies but as always opinions are 100% mine. This recipe is for adults 21 and older and does contain alcohol.

Apple Cider Jello Shots – perfect for fall parties! Apple cider and Fireball jello shots topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Happy Friday! I saved the boozy #HalloweenTreatsWeek recipe for the end of the week!

If you’ve missed my other posts this week, #HalloweenTreatsWeek is a yearly event hosted by Angie of Big Bear’s Wife and there are 41 bloggers sharing Halloween recipes this week. Some cute, some creepy, and all delicious!

Okay, so when was the last time you had a jello shot? Mine was probably, like, 2005. And it was definitely made with boxed jello mix and was awful. 

These are a little bit more of a grown person jello shot since you skip the box and use apple cider. If you want to make an apple cider drink that isn’t jello shots, I’ve got a Sparkling Apple Cider Sangria recipe that you will love. 

Ingredients

• 1 c Litehouse Gala Apple Cider
• juice of ½ lemon
• 1 (.25 oz) envelope unflavored gelatin
• 1 c Fireball Whiskey
• whipped cream and cinnamon

Instructions

• Add apple cider and lemon juice to a small saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin on top and let it bloom for about 5 minutes. Bring the mixture to a simmer and stir to dissolve gelatin. Remove from heat and stir in Fireball.
• Divide into shot containers and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon right before serving.

Where Can I Find Unflavored Gelatin?

You should be able to find it in pretty much any grocery store. It will be with the flavored jello and pudding mixes in the baking aisle in most stores. 

Or you can always order it online if you can’t find it near you.

• Pear Pomegranate Sangria
• Bourbon Apple Sidecar
