3. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water and 1/2 cup vodka (or juice). Mix well to combine.

4. Carefully pour the mixture into the molds using a funnel or small pitcher.

5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours until fully set.

Notes

These ghost jello shots can be customized with any gelatin flavor to suit your theme.

Don’t overdo the alcohol—too much will prevent the jello from setting.

Add ghost faces only after chilling to avoid smudging or running designs.
