I've come up with a few recipes for Jell-O shots over the years. They don't GID but they're really tasty. The general formula we came up with was anymore than half liquor/half water the shots would not set up right. It. Use this formula and the combos are limited only to your imaginaton. You can also use juice in place of some or all of the water.
Remember at the very least don't have more than half your recipe be alcohol. Or instead of Jell-O shots you'll have an unrecognizible colored slime that reeks of alcohol. Just a few things I've learned. Anyway here they are.

We even made Halloween double decker shots before. The Purple Passion recipe if given a little food coloring looks black. So we filled the shotglasses a little less than three quarters full with the Fuzzy Navel shots first let them set during the day went back and put a layer of the blackened Purple Passion shots on top of the orange. That way when the top hot layer melts away a little of the bottom layer it doesn't show up in the black area. They look pretty cool. It was a neat experiment.
