Tips
- When making jello, always make sure there are no more than two cups of liquid ingredients. One cup of that should be boiling water, and the 1/4 cup of cold water should also be kept cold.
- It is important that you keep the liquor and other ingredients in check when spiked with jello. Even though it might be tempting to pour more whiskey, remember that this could result in jello that does not set entirely. You have to serve it in a hands-free way, like miniature shot glasses or with miniature spoons, if you don’t want a huge mess to happen.
