Ingredients
- 2 Envelopes Knox Unflavored Gelatin
- 2 Cups Water
- 1 Cup Peach Schnapps
- 1/2 Cup Sugar
- Bailey's or a similar Irish Cream liqueur
- Cherry Jello
Instructions
1. Sprinkle the Knox Gelatin over the 2 Cups Cold Water. Let this sit for a few minutes
2. Heat this mixture over low heat until the gelatin starts to melt.
3. Add your sugar and stir until both the sugar and gelatin are dissolved.
4. Cool this mixture until it is no longer hot and stir in your Peach Schnapps
5. Pour this mixture into your cups and let this sit until it reaches the consistency of egg whites.
6. Use an eye dropper and drops some Bailey's or whatever liqueur you chose into each shot. You may want to submerge the dropper so that when you release the liqueur that it is shot into the center of the Jello shot to get the right effect. Do this 2 or 3 times until a goopy, ugly mess.
7. To get a bloody look, mix up your cherry jello with or without alcochol. You can do just a small amount if you want to. Inject this with your eye dropper on top of the liqueur you added before.
8. Chill these and they are ready to gross out your guests.

1. Make them with canned lychee nuts. Place a Dot Candy or Maraschino Cherry in the middle of the nut and add a bit of one of the Licorice Dots or a chocolate chip on the top of the Dot Candy or Cherry to make a pupil. To make these really have alcohol content, soak the lechee nuts in your alcohol of choice overnight before you make the eyeballs.
2. As in the photo, use the canned lychee nuts and add raisins to the centers. Drizzle with red food coloring tor the bloody effect. Make sure you pat the lychee nuts dry before you use them as they won't look right if the red food coloring gets diluted.

A Creepy Way To Get Your Jello
Use a syringe without a needle to suck up your red jello. This will look like your syringe is filled with blood.
Use an IV or Feeding bag to add your jello shot to. The guest just uses the tubing to suck the jello.
Use a plastic petri dish to place your jello shot in. Add candy sprinkles, other jello powder or cotton candy mix to the dishes to make them look like they have germs on them. Serve the petri dishes with tongue depressors so that the guests can scrape out the jello.
