My goal in making jello shots is to make them tasty not get people hammered. I think of yummy summer coktails and come up with recipes to mimic them. I never use more than 1 cup of alcohol per box. If its schnapps, I'll use 1 cup. The stronger the alcohol the less the amount of alcohol. If using vodka, I would use 1/2 cup flavored vodka and rest water or juice.

Yeah Everclear is basically moonshine which is far beyond the potency of any vodka or rum you can LEGALLY buy in a liquor store. Moonshine is illegal to purchase so unless you have some connections in KY, Lousiana, GA etc you'd better just stick to what you can get in stores lol. Remember, you just want to get a slight buzz you don't want to have your stomach pumped in the er from alcohol poisoning.

Everclear is great to use. Just got to watch how you mix it. In some states certain proofs of Everclear are illegal. I use 190 proof.

 AJ (United States) says:
Everclear is a white/clear grain alcohol, 151- and 190-proof; which are 75.5 and 95 percent alcohol, respectively. In contrast, other hard liquors such as rum and vodka are typically 80 to 120 proof, which contain 40 to 60 percent alcohol. Due to its high alcohol content, Everclear is illegal, unavailable, or difficult to find in many areas.

Try using Cherry Pucker with cherry jello, or Apple Pucker with apple jello, or Watermelon Pucker with watermelon jello, etc. Jello shots end up with EXTREME flavor! and alcohol content is not over powering.

We put the jello in syringes. We by them at our local fleet farm. We use the bigger ones that they use for animals. Easy to fill and clean and can be used over!

I find that if you use tequilla with the strawberry jello or lime you have some great margarita shooters!! Use double the jello powder if you want some that dont taste like alcohol. Jello shots... mmmmm...
