Caramel apple jello shots are a show-stopping boozy treat for Fall parties and tailgates. They’re easy to make, and they have a delicious caramel flavor that everyone will love!
For this recipe you will need green apple jello, caramel sauce, and vodka. You can use any type of caramel sauce you like, but I highly recommend using a jar of Smucker’s caramel ice cream topping. You can also purchase unwrapped caramel baking bits to save a step. These shots are best if made the day before you want to serve them, so they have plenty of time to chill in the fridge. If you need to make these shots a few hours in advance, I would suggest placing them in a muffin tin or on a cookie sheet for easy transport to and from the refrigerator.
Sip and Savor: Elevate Your Party with Irresistible Caramel Apple Jello Shot Recipes
To get started cut a few Granny Smith apples in half and remove the core using a melon baller. Next, place the apples firmly into a muffin tin to keep them steady while you pour the jello shot mixture. Whisk together the bourbon and gelatin until the granules dissolve, then add the condensed milk and caramel sauce. Stir until combined, then pour evenly into your plastic jello shot cups. Move the jello shots to the refrigerator to chill for a minimum of four hours.
If you’d prefer to make these jello shots kid-friendly, you can substitute the bourbon for apple juice or cider. You can also try adding different alcohol to the gelatin mixture, such as butterscotch schnapps or sour apple pucker, or omitting it completely for a non-alcoholic version of this recipe.
