Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot Recipe - Tribute to Tommy James & The Shondells

The sweet, fruity, heavenly taste of the Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot recipe will put in the perfect frame of mind to listen to the song Crystal Blue Persuasion by Tommy James and The Shondells.  When I was hunting around a "today in history" type website I learned that today - June 7th, 1969 - is the date when Crystal Blue Persuasion was released.  In an interview, Tommy James mentioned that he was in Hawaii when Crystal Blue Persuasion hit #1 so he always thinks of Hawaii when he thinks of the song.  The Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot recipe is the perfect flavor to bring to mind a tropical land.

What you will need to make the
Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot recipe:

2 ounce clear souffle cups or something to hold your Jello Shots
non-stick cooking spray (if desired)
3 ounce box of Kraft Berry Blue flavored Jello
3/4 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
3/4 cup Blue Curacao liqueur

If you will be using souffle cups to make your Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shots I recommend preparing them by lightly coating the inside of each cup with non-stick cooking spray. This will make the Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shots slide out easily. If you choose to use another type of container for your Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot recipe you can skip this step.

To begin making theCrystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot recipe you will need to combine the Berry Blue Jello and boiling water in a bowl. Stir the mixture for two minutes, making sure all of the Jello has dissolved.

Add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Your Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot recipe is complete. Pour the Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shot mixture into Jello Shot cups and place in the refrigerator for several hours until firmly set. This recipe should make about 12 Crystal Blue Persuasion Jello Shots in 2 ounce cups.
