Jello Shot Science
Serious Mealtimes / George M. Groutas
Nearly everyone has had a bad experience with those brightly colored Jello shots that are synonymous with bad booze and even worse ideas. But modern mixologists have reinvented these slurpable solids creating new textures and beautiful presentations. Are they worth revisiting?
Why do Jello shots get such a bad rap? Because it’s so easy to use cheap booze and convenient powder mixes to make them. The sugar in these mixes helps mask the taste of the alcohol and when you bind the alcohol in a solid form it doesn’t dissolve as well on your tongue meaning you don’t taste the alcohol as much. That means you can easily get a little too drunk without even realizing it.
