Equipment

12 to 16 2-ounce jello shot cups with lids
cookie sheet (optional)
kettle or pot
mixing bowl, preferably with a spout to make pouring easier
measuring cup
spoon
12 to 16 mini tasting spoons (optional) - to make eating the jello shots easier

Ingredients

1 3-ounce (small) box Island Pinapple Jello
1 cup boiling water
¾ cup Malibu Coconut Rum
¼ cup cold water

Instructions

Put out 12 to 16 shot cups on a cookie sheet.
Boil some water in a kettle or pot.
Pour the pineapple jello into mixing bowl.
1 3-ounce (small) box Island Pinapple Jello
Add the boiling water into the bowl and stir until all of the gelatin has dissolved, about 30 seconds
1 cup boiling water
Mix in Malibu coconut rum and cold water.
¾ cup Malibu Coconut Rum, ¼ cup cold water
Pour the gelatin mixture into the jello shot cups and put on the lids.
Refrigerate until they have gelled, 2 to 4 hours.

Notes

Putting the jello shot cups on a cookie sheet catches any spills and makes them easier to move into the refrigerator.
For a stronger or weaker jello shot, adjust the amount of Malibu rum and water. Just make sure that the total amount of liquid added is 1 cup.
To prevent water from condensing on the jello shot cup lids, wait until the gelatin mixture has cooled completely before putting them on the shot cups.
