WATERMELON MOJITO JELL-O SHOTS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:
- In a blender or food processor, puree enough watermelon to get 1 cup of juice. (The water content is so high in watermelon it's very easy to get that much juice) I used half of a small watermelon. Strain the watermelon puree so you get out all the seeds. Pour the watermelon juice in a saucepan (no heat yet). Sprinkle on two packets of Knox gelatin. Let it sit for a few minutes then whisk it until it's combined. Turn on the stove-top to medium heat. Add 4 tablespoons of sugar and whisk until combined. When simmering add one cup cold water. Pour your watermelon mixture into a 9×13 pan that has been lightly (very lightly) greased. Refrigerate until firm (2 hours or so). Chop some fresh mint leaves. Pour 1 cup water into a saucepan (no heat yet) Sprinkle on two packets of Knox gelatin. Let it sit for a few minutes then whisk it until it's combined. Turn on the stove-top to medium heat. Add 4 tablespoons of sugar and whisk until combined. When simmering add one cup cold white rum. Add your chopped mint into your rum mixture then pour into your 9×13 pan. Refrigerate until firm (2 hours or so). With a cookie cutter of choice (I started with a square as you can see, but then decided on the triangle) slowly cut out your jello shots. Press down slowly and make sure you don't have any mint leaves caught on the cutter when you move on to the next.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your mojito Jell-O shots will taste. This means using fresh limes, mint, and rum.
- Chill your ingredients: Before you start making your Jell-O shots, make sure all of your ingredients are cold. This will help the Jell-O set more quickly and will also make the shots more refreshing.
- Use a good quality rum: The type of rum you use will make a big difference in the taste of your Jell-O shots. Use a light or white rum that is smooth and flavorful.
- Don't over-mix the Jell-O: Over-mixing the Jell-O can make it tough and rubbery. Mix it just until the Jell-O powder is dissolved.
- Let the Jell-O shots set completely: Before you enjoy your Jell-O shots, make sure they have set completely. This usually takes about 4 hours, but you can refrigerate them overnight for best results.
- Garnish with lime wedges and mint leaves: When you're ready to serve your Jell-O shots, garnish them with lime wedges and mint leaves for a festive touch.
Conclusion:
Mojito Jell-O shots are a fun and refreshing way to enjoy your favorite cocktail. They're perfect for parties, BBQs, or any other summer gathering. With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily make these delicious and boozy treats at home.
