Instructions

Blue Layer (Bottom):

  2. Add 1 cup boiling water and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  3. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until well mixed. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
  4. Once the blue layer is set, gently pour the white gelatin mixture over it to fill another third of the glasses. Return to the refrigerator and let set for another 2-3 hours.

Red Layer (Top):

  1. Dissolve the red Jell-O in 1 cup of boiling water.
  2. Mix in ½ cup vodka and ½ cup cold water.

Garnish: Just before serving, top each Jell-O shot with a small dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle red, white, and blue sprinkles over the whipped cream for a festive finish.
