How to Make Red Wine Jello Shots

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at BU chapter.

If we are to name one thing that has earned and retained its popularity at college parties (or any party), jello shots win. They’re fun and easy to make, and they guarantee to attract the crowd. Whether you’re throwing a dorm party this weekend and you need something to get you and your friends buzzed, or you’re hosting a housewarming party and you want a quick add-on to serve your guests, jello shots have your back.

While a hard liquor like vodka or rum are a common base for jello shots, I suggest y’all to use red wine for your next party.

    #SpoonTip: Do not pour the wine into the hot gelatin mixture. It will make the alcohol evaporate.
