In the recipe notes, you'll also find the option to add rum if you want some adult Jello shots. We use the larger cups for the kids version, and the smaller cups for the adult Jello shots.

These Jello cups are great for party or celebration and are so simple to make! Use whipped topping or freshly whipped cream and any Halloween sprinkles you have! You can even change up the flavor of Jello and sprinkles and make them for any holiday or special occasion.
