Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin or 1 envelope gelatin powder
- ¼ cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- ½ cup Boiling Water
- ¼ cup Pineapple Juice
- 2 tablespoons cream of coconut Coco Real recommended
- ½ cup Silver Rum or coconut rum
- 12 maraschino cherries rinsed and dried
- 12 2-ounce plastic cups with lids
Instructions
Prepare the Cups:
- Place the plastic shot cups on a small baking sheet for easy transport. Set aside.
Bloom the Gelatin:
- In a small mixing bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over ¼ cup cold water. Let it sit for about 2 minutes to absorb the water.
Dissolve the Sugar and Gelatin:
- Add the sugar to ½ cup boiling water and whisk until dissolved. Pour the hot water into the gelatin mixture and whisk until the gelatin is fully dissolved.
Add the Flavorings:
- Whisk in the pineapple juice, cream of coconut, and rum until well combined.
Pour and Chill:
- Pour the jello mixture into the prepared plastic cups, filling each one about ¾ full. Place the cups in the refrigerator uncovered for 30 to 40 minutes until the jello begins to thicken.
Add the Cherries:
- Remove the jello cups from the fridge and gently press one maraschino cherry into the center of each cup, allowing it to partially submerge.
Refrigerate Until Set:
- Return the cups to the fridge and chill for 2-3 hours, or until the jello is completely set.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Cover each cup with a lid and refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve chilled for a sweet, tropical experience!
