Notes
- Ensure the jello is completely dissolved to avoid grainy texture.
- Use a cold water splash to help the jello mixture cool down before adding alcohol to maintain proper gelatin setting.
- Keep the shots refrigerated until serving to maintain firmness.
- Consider using silicone molds for easy removal if desired.
- Adjust amount of rum to suit taste and potency preference.
