CAFFEINATED WATERMELON/LIME MARGARITA JELLO SHOTS
Disclaimer (maybe enticer?): recipe combines caffeine and alcohol.
In the spirit of St. Patrick's Day, these guys are BRIGHT green and shamrock-shaped. The best, tastiest jello shots ever--and the ONLY caffeinated ones. Serve them up in shooter-cups or any shape you like! Get ready to shamrock and roll.
MACROS per shot: 20 cal | 3g carbs, 0g fats, 0g protein, ~25mg caffeine
INGREDIENTS (makes ~30 shots)
📍 2 scoops C&K Clearly Caffeine (watermelon)
📍 3oz packet lime jello mix (you can opt to use sugar free for better macros)
📍 Unflavored gelatin (1/4oz packet)
📍 Juice of 1 lime
📍 3oz tequila (we used silver)
📍 1.5oz triple sec
📍 3oz cold water
📍 1 cup boiling water
NOTE: RESIST ANY URGE to manipulate the alcohol content of your shots--too much alcohol may prevent your jello from setting correctly.
SECOND NOTE: These yield a sweet, strong watermelon-y flavor. To tone it down, use only ONE scoop of Clearly Caffeine.
DIRECTIONS
STEP 1: Mix together tequila, triple sec, lime juice and cold water in a small bowl (it will be FRAGRANT). Pop that into the fridge to chill 5-10 mins.
STEP 2: Add your lime jello mix and clearly caffeine to a medium bowl (cue powder storm--beware inhalation). Stir in boiling water until completely dissolved.

STEP 3: Get your small bowl from the fridge and whisk in the unflavored gelatin; make sure you are whisking WHILST pouring the gelatin in or else you'll get jelly chunks. Let that sit for one minute.
STEP 4: After sitting, add the cold boozy bowl to the warm mix and stir well.
STEP 5: Pour the liquid into your molds/cups of choice. Also note the number of shots you make will affect the macros/alcohol and caffeine content per shot. We used a shallow baking pan for a sheet of jello which we then cut up with a cookie cutter. Back into the fridge it all goes for AT LEAST 2 hours until it sets completely.

AND YOU'RE DONE! These are REALLY easy to make, REALLY fast to make (aside from the setting time), and REALLY delicious to eat.
