Peach Jello Shots Ingredients
You will need:
- 3 ounces peach jello mix
- 1 cup boiling water
- ¼ cup cold water
- ¾ cup peach schnapps
Peach candy rings
PRO TIP: If you can’t find the 2-ounce plastic shot cups with lids, they may be labeled as plastic condiment cups. These can be used interchangeably. You can use any shot cups you prefer, but keep in mind that your servings may differ from this recipe.
Substitutions and Additions
VODKA: Substitute vodka for some of the peach schnapps and use both liquors or simply swap out the peach schnapps for all vodka. You will still get plenty of peach flavor from the jello itself. You can use plain vodka, or if you can find peach vodka, you could use that instead.
COOL WHIP: Add a small scoop of whipped topping on top of the jello shots before adding the peach candy for even more sweetness.
How to Make Peach Jello Shots
STEP ONE: In a 2-cup measuring cup, whisk together the peach jello mix and 1 cup of boiling water until the jello is fully dissolved.
STEP TWO: Once the jello is fully dissolved, stir in the cold water and the peach schnapps. Mix until combined.
PRO TIP: For a stronger jello shot, use up to 1 full cup of peach schnapps. You can use additional cold water and reduce the amount of alcohol for a lighter jello shot. You need two cups total of liquid to combine with the jello mixture.
STEP THREE: Carefully pour the mixture between small plastic shot cups. Fill just under the top, so they don’t spill.
PRO TIP: Setting the jello shot cups on a baking tray will help make it easier to transport them to the fridge for chilling.
STEP FOUR: Transfer jello shots to the refrigerator and chill for 4 hours until set.
PRO TIP: Keep jello shots refrigerated until consumed. They will start to liquefy in the summer heat.
STEP FIVE: Just before serving, top each jello shot with a peach candy ring.
PRO TIP: The gummy peach rings get soft and slimy if they sit on top of the shots for too long. I recommend popping them on just before serving this boozy treat.
How to Serve Peach Jello Shots

Storage
IN THE FRIDGE: These yummy peach jello shots will keep in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. Cover if you use containers that do not come with individual lids; otherwise, pop the lids on for storage. Do not store it with the peach ring garnish on top of the jello.
IN THE FREEZER: Because of the gelatin and alcohol, this peach shot recipe doesn’t tend to freeze very well.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I make these fuzzy navel jello shots ahead of time?
These jello shots can be made up to a week ahead of time.
How to store these peach shots?
If you have any leftover jello shots, you can store them in the fridge for up to a week with their lids tightly on.
Can you freeze jello shots?
No, I don’t find that jello shots freeze well because of the gelatin and alcohol. While you can pop them in the freezer for a few minutes to help speed along the setting process, you shouldn’t store them in the freezer after they’re done.
Can I use regular vodka instead of peach schnapps?
If you’d like to substitute some or all of the peach schnapps with vodka, you will still have plenty of peachy flavor from the jello.
