These jello shots have all the flavors of Pineapple Upside Down Cake. Thanks to the Cake-flavored vodka, they really do taste like cake in a shot glass.

Tips For Making Pineapple Upside Down Jello Shots
- It’s important that you let the gelatin soften. Just sprinkle the gelatin on top of the pineapple juice and sugar and let it do its thing for 5 minutes.
- When you are heating the mixture to dissolve the sugar and gelatin, do NOT let it boil. Your jello shots will not set up right if you do.
- These jello shots are best made in the morning or even the night before you want to serve them so they have plenty of time to set up.
- These 2-ounce cups are perfect for making jello shots.
Storage
Jello shots can be stored in the refrigerator for 5 days. After that they may start to get watery.
