13 spooky and tasty Halloween Jello shots

Halloween is just around the corner, and that means one thing – party time!

And for me, party time also means Jello shot time.

Jello shots are always one of my go-to party drinks.

They’re easy to prepare, easy to serve, and you put them together ahead of time.

All you have to do at the party is pull them out of the refrigerator and hand them out. So much easier than mixing cocktails.

You can also make them to match pretty much any theme.

Which is why I came up with this list.

Because I’m planning this year’s Halloween celebration and I need to find the best Halloween Jello shots to put on the menu.

Purple and green layered jello shots

I served these purple and green layered jello shots at my Maleficent Halloween party a few years ago, and they were a huge hit.

They taste just like the cocktail with the same name.

And the purple and green stripes are the perfect color combination to go with a lot of Halloween themes.

2 | Purple Hooter Jello shots

Of course, if you don’t want to go to all the effort of creating layers, these plain purple Jello shots are super easy to make and are the perfect Halloween color.

They’re made with raspberry liqueur and vodka, so they taste great, too.

3 | Apple cinnamon fireball jello shots

Or you could go with these electric green jello shots. Another really-easy-to-make recipe.

These ones combine two of the most popular fall flavors – apple and cinnamon – to create a really tasty treat.

Green Halloween Jello shots with gummy worms

You can also dress them up a little by adding some gummy worms.

Note: If you’re doing this, you’ll need to make the jello shots the day of the party, since the gummies will turn to mush if they are left in the Jello for too long.

4 | Black coconut Jello shots

And the black and red layers are perfect for a Halloween party (like the fallen angels and devils party I hosted a few years ago).

6 | Creamy candy corn Jello shots

Nothing says “Halloween” more than candy corn. So if you love the candy, then you’ll really love this boozy version of it.
