Ingredients
- 1 cup sweet fruit juice
- 1 cup coconut rum or vodka
- 1/2 teaspoon agar powder
- 1/2 tablespoon corn starch
Pour the juice into a microwave-safe container or a small pot. Mix in the agar powder and let sit for about 5 minutes. Bring the juice to a boil in the microwave or on the stove and boil or simmer for about 1 minute. Stir in DISSOLVED cornstarch* and rum or vodka. Pour mixture into about 15 to 18 shot glasses or small cups. Refrigerate at least a few hours to let the "jello" set. Keep refrigerated until use.
*To dissolve the cornstarch, mix it with about 1 to 2 Tbsp. COLD water.
Notes:
-The consistency is similar to gelatin-based Jello, but a little softer, which in my opinion slides down your throat easier.
-You can easily change the ratio of juice to alcohol to make the shots more or less strong. (I do not recommend making them any stronger though - yuck!)
-When taking the shots, keep in mind they are alcohol shots, not yummy desserts, so drink them fast.
-Please be a responsible drinker!!!
