Equipment

10 Jello Shot Cups
Pan
Whisk
Measuring Cups

Ingredients

1 small box Orange Jell-O 3.5 oz size
2 Packets Unflavored Gelatin
2 Cups Boiling Water
¾ Cup Cold Water divided
1 Cup Vodka or a flavored Whipped Cream Vodka both work great
¼ Cup Simple Syrup equal parts sugar and water
2 tablespoons Sweetened Condensed Milk
½ Teaspoon Black Gel Food Coloring
Green Sprinkles optional

Instructions

Start out by placing your jello shot cups on a baking sheet that is rimmed. This will make moving them around easy.
Next add 1 cup of water into a pan and heat until it boils. Then add in the orange jello and remove from the heat. Stir constantly for 2 minutes to help dissolve all the jello.
Once the jello is dissolved, add in 1/2 cup vodka, 1/2 cup cold water, and black food dye. Stir well to make sure well mixed.
Pour the black jello into the jello cups. Air for about a quarter of the way full. Then place the jello cups in the fridge and let them set up for 30 minutes.
Once the black is set up, you will start on the white. Add 1 cup of water into pan and bring to a boil.
Remove from heat and add in the unflavored gelatin, and then add in 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk, vodka, and 1/4 cup cold water. Stir to combine.
Pour the white mixture on top of the black, a small portion. Then refrigerate 30 minutes.
Next, you will repeat another layer of black and white so there are 4 layers total. Then right before serving top with green sprinkles and serve the Halloween jello shots.

Notes

Flavor of Jello - I used orange jello flavor but you can use any flavor of jello you want.

Alcohol - You could swap vodka with rum or even another type of alcohol if you want.
