Simple Root Beer Jello Shots

These shots are so simple to make with only a handful of ingredients. They are quick to make and can be ready in minutes for any occasion. These taste exactly like the fan-favorite root beer float!

Key Ingredients You’ll Need

Root Beer: This will give a strong flavor and also help with the deep brown color of the jello.

Liquor: Use chilled whipped vodka which will be soaked up into the unflavored gelatin.

How To Make Root Beer Float Jello Shots

Step 1. Place the root beer and gelatin into a medium-sized saucepan and combine gently. Allow the jello to dissolve or ‘bloom’ for 5 minutes. Put on medium heat and allow it to boil before turning the heat to low and simmering for 3 minutes.

Step 2. Take away from the heat and let it cool for 10 minutes before adding the vodka and 1 cup of the chilled rootbeer and mix. Pour into 10 plastic shot glasses before placing them into the fridge to chill for 3 hours. Serve and enjoy!

How To Store Root Beer Float Jello Shots?

If you are storing, I recommend containers with lids or using an airtight container. Place them in the fridge and only put the whipped cream and cherry on top when you are ready to serve.

Can I Make These Jello Shot With Different Soda Flavors?

Yes! You have free range to try this recipe with other soda flavors. Personally, darker sodas like Coke or Dr. Pepper work the best! But, I will say that root beer is my favorite!
