    Whenever Valentine's Day rolls around I remind myself to not be totally sucked in by this Hallmark holiday (because Valentine's Day should be every day, am I right??). So I'm getting into the spirit with a few tasty, fun, romantic recipes for you and your sweetie.

    ❤️ What makes these jello shots the perfect adult treat?

    Rosé Jello Shots
    • You only need a few simple ingredients to make them.
    • They're great to make ahead of time for your next party. And easy for your party guests to eat.
    • Perfect for small or large gatherings.
    • They're full of delicious flavors and add a fun twist on basic jello shots.

    🍓 Ingredient notes

    strawberry jello shots with rodney strong rose
    • Unflavored gelatin
    • Sugar
    • Rosé wine - a good, dry wine will work best in this recipe. I use a little less than two cups as I don't like to add too much alcohol
    • Seltzer water - to add some sparkly effervescence
    • Still water - I use 2 cups of water
    • Lime juice and mini lime wedges - for a bit of tasty tartness
    • Strawberries - use ripe, fresh strawberries

    ✅ Step-by-step instructions

    Here's how to make this simple recipe (for full details and nutritional information, see my recipe card below):

    Rosé Strawberry Lime Jello Shots
    1. Begin by adding water and unflavored gelatin to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
    2. After the gelatin has dissolved in the boiling water, remove from heat and pour jello mixture into a heatproof bowl.
    3. Mix in rosé, sugar, and seltzer water, then pour into mini plastic jello shot cups, baking sheet, cookie sheet, or other mold.
    4. Refrigerate for a few minutes until the mixture starts to set, then add the strawberries. Chill for 3-4 hours.

    ❓Recipe FAQs

    How long does it take for the jello shots to set?

    Plan on chilling them for at least 4 hours for them to fully set. You may need longer depending on how many you make.

    Why should I add seltzer water to my rose jello shots?

    I add a little seltzer water to add some bubbly, without adding actual bubbly. This gives them a bit of effervescence without overpowering them with alcohol.

    What if I like stronger jello shots?

    I prefer to not overdo it with the alcohol in my jello shots, but if you like them a bit stronger, you can a little bit of regular vodka. But be sure to watch your flavor combos so it doesn't end up overpowering the rest of the recipe.

        These ARE perfect for Valentine's Day, but they've also got me thinking of spring when the strawberries will be at their prime :D Course I'm down for a jello shot, no matter the occasion or the time of year. They're always so fun!
