Common Questions About Making Eggnog Jello Shots

What is a jello shot?

Jello shots are a fun spin on a classic shot.  Instead of jello being made with flavored gelatin and water, you substitute alcohol in for part of the liquid in the recipe.

Can I use homemade eggnog?

You sure can! Personally, I always make this recipe using my homemade eggnog recipe but you could also use my eggless eggnog recipe if you aren’t an egg person.

What alcohol can I add to an eggnog jello shot?

So there are a few options for what alcohol you can use in an eggnog jello shot because so many different alcohols taste great with eggnog.  I would suggest –

• Spiced rum
• Bourbon
• RumChata
• Amaretto
• Cognac
