Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring 1 1/2 cup water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat.
    2 cup water
  • In a large bowl, add water and 4 packages of gelatin. Whisk quickly until gelatin is dissolved.
    1 1/4 ounce unflavored gelatin
  • Add Guinness to gelatin mixture and whisk quickly until combined.
    2 cup Guinness
  • Using a funnel or injector, pour gelatin into shot cups, smoothing or spooning out any bubbles that form on top. Fill cups about 3/4 of the way full.
  • Place jello shots in the refrigerator and let set for at least 1-2 hours or until set and firm.
  • Once Guinness layer has set, boil the remaining 1/2 cup water.
    2 cup water
  • In a medium bowl, add the boiled water, Kahlua, whipped cream vodka, and the last gelatin packet. Using a hand mixer, whip until half of the mixture is frothy, about 2-3 minutes.
    1/4 cup Kahlua, 1/4 cup whipped cream vodka, 1 1/4 ounce unflavored gelatin
  • Using a funnel or injector, top the Guinness layer in the jello shots with the frothy mixture. About halfway through, whip the mixture again to keep it frothy.
  • Place finished jello shots in the refrigerator and let set for at least 1 hour.
  • Serve immediately.
