Uncle Sam Jello Shot Recipe - Don't Forget Uncle Sam on the 4th of July

The 4th of July is quickly approaching.  Don't forget to include Uncle Sam in your 4th of July party plans (Uncle Sam Jello Shots, that is).

What you will need to make the

Uncle Sam 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 Knox Unflavored Gelatin
3/4 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
1/4 cup Cinnamon liqueur
1/4 cup Peppermint Schnapps
1/4 cup Rumple Minze

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


To begin making the Uncle Sam Jello Shot recipe you will need to combine the Knox Gelatin and boiling water in a bowl. Stir the mixture for two minutes, making sure all of the Gelatin has dissolved.

Add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Your Uncle Sam Jello Shot recipe is complete. Pour the Crystal Uncle Sam mixture into Jello Shot cups and place in the refrigerator to chill until set and then let Uncle Sam (Jello Shots) entertain your 4th of July party guests. The recipe should make about 12 Uncle Sam Jello Shots.
