Brandy Banana Pudding Shots

These little shots are excellent way to combine two of the best things: booze and desserts. It's a great way to have a little dessert at your party, and get a little buzz with it.

*Please note, these are only for those of legal drinking age. Please consume responsibly.*


Ingredients:
Dr. Pepper
Milk (I used 2%, but whatever you have should work)
Brandy
1 box of Banana Cream pudding - 3.9oz  *Make sure it's the instant kind*
Cool Whip
Plastic Shot cups - you can pick these up at party city or a local restaurant supply store. See photo below:
Step one:
Mix 3.9oz box of Banana Cream pudding with 3/4 cup milk

Step two:
Add 1/3 cup Dr. Pepper and 1/2 cup of Brandy and stir together.

Step three:
FOLD in 8oz of cool whip. It should be a little thick, as it will not set as well as jello does.




 
Step four:
Add pudding to the shot cups. I transferred the pudding to a ziploc bag and sealed. I then cut a corner of the bag off (not the zipper part). Hold the bag between your thumb and hand and slowly open to drop pudding into cups.

Excuse my two AMF shots in there, I made these at the same time. (You can find that recipe here.)
 




Step six:
Put them in the fridge (not the freezer!) for a good few hours before serving. I like to prepare mine the night before so they get to the perfect consistency.

Yes, I do make a mess. Add cool whip or whipped cream to the top for extra flavor!



These are inspired by my husband with his Dr. Pepper and Brandy drink, that would be awesome with banana.

AMF Jello Shots

I spent quite a bit of time looking for an AMF (Adios Mother Fucker) drink Jello shot recipe. Eventually I gave up, and created my own.

*Please note, these are only for those of legal drinking age. Please consume responsibly.*

For this I am using essentially the same recipe as my original jello shots, with changes in booze and water quantities. You can find that here.

Ingredients: 
1 packet of Knox Gelatine (comes with 4 per package)
Sugar
Boiling water
COLD water
COLD sprite
COLD sweet and sour
COLD booze - Tequila, Rum, Vodka, and Blue Curacao (Many people add Gin to this as well, I just doubled the vodka on mine. Feel free to pick that up as well.)
Jello shot cups - you can pick these up at party city or a local restaurant supply store. See photo below:

Step one:
Boil water - 1 cup

Step two:
Combine 1 package of gelatin and 1/2 cup sugar.
*NOTE* These come out VERY strong. Feel free to add more sugar as you feel needed.

Step three:
Add 1 cup boiling water to the sugar/gelatin mix. Be sure to stir - don't stir crazy fast or you will get lots of bubbles. Bubbles often tend to stay in the jello. Make sure the sugar and gelatin mix is completely dissolved.


I'm going to warn you right now, it did not smell good. It does not still smell like that when you add all the liquors and cold drinks.

Step four:
Add:
1oz cold water
1oz sweet and sour
1oz of sprite

1oz of Rum
1oz of Blue Curacao
1oz of Tequila
2oz of Vodka (*Note, if you decided to use Gin as well, use 1oz vodka and 1oz Gin*).

Stir again!
Step five:
Now pour this into your jello shot cups. I tend to spill a lot so I use a measuring cup.

Step six:
Put them in the fridge (not the freezer!) for a good few hours before serving. I like to prepare mine the night before so they get to the perfect consistency.

Please be careful, these things are strong!



Shout out to Richard for his famous AMF's that inspired these jello shots!
