Whether it’s a backyard barbecue or a night indoors with friends, no one could ever say no to Jell-O shots. This cannabis dessert recipe is a super simple way to get the party started and entertain your guests (or simply indulge by yourself – no judgment here).

Not only is gelatin, or Jell-O, already super easy to make, but with the right cannabis product, it is even easier to turn it into a yummy edible. With this simple cannabis jello shots recipe, you can infuse your favorite flavors into colorful, fun, and perfectly dosed party treats in minutes.

And just like taking an edible, the worst part of this recipe will be the waiting period.

How to Make the Best Cannabis Jell-O Shots

The best part about these cannabis-infused Jell-O shots is that there are a lot of options on how to dose this dessert. You could use your favorite cannabis tincture or beverage-enhancing product.

We found that the easiest way is to use a Good Feels Beverage Enhancer. (Is Jell-O technically a beverage? We’ll say it is if you will.) Their on-the-go beverage enhancers are not only fast-acting, but they have a clean, well-balanced taste that actually makes cooking with cannabis as flavorful as it is fun.

The best part is that Good Feels is zero-calorie and zero sugar, and you can find it at our Provincetown dispensary. You can also ask one of our in-store budtenders for any potential substitutions, like tinctures or additional flavors.

The first step is to select your Jell-O flavor and decide if you want to use the Good Feels Lemon Lime enhancer or the flavorless one. We like to keep it green and use a lime-flavored gelatin mix with the lemon-lime Good Feels enhancer, but you could go with any flavor that sounds good to you.

Don’t count out Jell-O’s instant pudding mix products either. Some flavorless Good Feels and infused whipped cream paired with a Strawberry Cheesecake or Pumpkin Spice pudding sounds *chef’s kiss*.

Next, follow the instructions listed on the Jell-O box. Start by pouring the powdered gelatin into a mixing bowl. Add boiling water to the gelatin mix, and stir for 2 minutes until it’s completely dissolved.

Once the gelatin is dissolved, you’ll need to stir in cold water to cool everything down. This is the perfect time to use the marked dropper on your Good Feels Beverage Enhancer and add in your desired dose. It’s important to never add cannabis to your recipes while things are hot or boiling, because this can damage the terpenes or potency of your product.

Then, just wait for the magic to happen in the fridge! (Just like our No-Bake Cannabis Peanut Butter Bars). You should refrigerate your Cannabis Jell-O Shots for at least 4 hours, or until the gelatin is firm and doesn’t stick to your fingers when touched.

If you’re planning on making jello shots with cannabis, you can increase your dose based on your tolerance. If needed, hold back a little of the cold water you add to make up for the extra liquid being added from the Good Feels. As always, be sure to dose your cannabis recipes responsibly!

Another way to add a little THC-oomph to your Jell-O would be to add some infused whipped cream. You can do this by adding a dropper-full of Good Feels to a cup of heavy whipping cream with a bit of sugar and beating at a high speed for a few minutes.
