Can I make Pink Pony Jello Shots without alcohol?

Absolutely. Just swap the vodka or rum with cold water, juice, or pink soda for a non-alcoholic version. They’ll still look and taste party-ready.

How far in advance can I make these?

You can prep these up to 3 days in advance. Keep them chilled and covered in the fridge until you’re ready to serve. They actually hold their shape better with a little extra chill time.

What’s the best vodka to use in these shots?

Flavored vodkas like vanilla or whipped vodka work best. They pair beautifully with fruity jello and create that candy-like finish. You can also try coconut rum if you prefer a tropical twist, like in the Malibu Mermaid Bucket Cocktail .

Can I use different jello flavors?

Definitely. Raspberry or cherry jello works well for the bottom, and you can mix strawberry lemonade with pink Starburst for the top. The key is to contrast color and flavor—like we do in the Ocean Peach Punch .
