    How long does it take for Jello Shots to Set?

    Jello shots are great for parties because you can make them a head of time. I like to make mine the night before. They typically need 4 hours to set.

    "Drinkin' rum before 10:00am makes you a pirate, not an alcoholic."-Earl Dibbles Jr.

    Organic Rum

    I was recently offered a couple bottles of Batiste Rum to try their rum and tell you guys (my readers) what I think.

    I was like, "Well ya... don't I look like a girl that likes to have fun? Of course I won't turn down a bottle of rum! Bring it on and pack some extra..."

    However, when they shipped it to me, I had no idea what I was really in for.

    Not all rum is created equal! Batiste Rum is very special.  Batiste RHUM is organic, all natural, gluten free, Non GMO and Fair Trade! They are Eco-Positive and Carbon Negative.

    If that isn't enough, the rum is made with 100% fresh Caribbean Island grown sugar can juice! (Most rum is made with molasses. Batiste has zero grams of sugar.)

    Even with all that great stuff, what you really want to know is.... IS IT GOOD? Uh.... YA!!! It is freakin' AWESOME! You want a bottle now, don't you?

    Speaking of Caribbean Island; taking a sip of this stuff reminds you of all the fun times you have had on the islands drinking a (or several) Rum Punch, Strawberry Daiquiri, Mai Tai, Mojito, or Pina Colada.

    If you can't sail off to islands, why not bring the Caribbean to you? Hence, I have concocted these amazing Pina Colada jello Shooters (jello party shots)! - You are welcome!!!

    What to make Jello Shooters for?

    Rum may not fix all your problems... but it is worth a shot; a Pina colada jello shot that is! Make these Pina Colada Jello Shooters for:

    • birthday parties
    • girl's night
    • Bachelorette or Bachelor's Party
    • Memorial Day
    • July 4th

    • Pool Parties
    • Tailgating
    • Boat parties
    • New Years parties

    Aren't these the cutest little jello shots ever?

    I was worried the flavors would be over powered by the rum, but the sweetened coconut cream is compliments the rum, the pineapple adds to the flavor, and the cherry makes the pina colada combination POP!

    Speaking of Pop... don't you want to pop these little beauties in your mouth. You can even grab them by the stem!
