Notes
Use boiling water: To make sure that the strawberry gelatin dissolves completely, use water that is boiling. This will guarantee that your jello shots have a smooth and even texture.
Chill your vodka: Before adding your vodka to the jello mixture, make sure it's well-chilled. This not only helps to give your jello shots a refreshing, cold kick but also helps the jello to set faster.
Prepare in advance: Remember that jello takes time to set, even in small shot glasses. Make sure to prepare these strawberry jello shots at least 4 hours before you plan to serve them. They will take at least 3 hours to fully set. I place the shots on a baking sheet or in a muffin tin to keep them stationary until set.
