Cranberry Jello Shot

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 cup Fresh cranberries
  • 2 packets of cranberry flavoured jelly
  • 1 cup Vodka

Instructions

  • In medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water and stir until sugar dissolves completely. Let cool 20 minutes, then mix in cranberries until coated. 
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer cranberries, tapping away any excess syrup, into a large resealable plastic bag. Add remaining 1 cup sugar, seal, and shake until cranberries are completely coated.
  • Spread out cranberries on a baking sheet and refrigerate until cranberries are completely cool and sugar hardens, 25 minutes. 
  • Bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add jelly mix and whisk until completely dissolved, then remove from heat and stir in vodka and 1 cup cold water. Let cool 2 to 3 minutes. 
  • Place 18 plastic shot glasses on a baking sheet and pour in Jell-O mixture until each is 2/3 full.
  • Refrigerate until set, about 3 hours.
  • Top each shot with 1 or 2 sugared cranberries.
