These Orange Maple Pecan Bourbon Jelly Shots have orange juice, Maple Pecan Cream Liqueur, Bourbon, maple syrup, and Orange gelatin.

So it’s National Liqueur Day.

Proof that there is a day for everything. 😛

Because of that I wanted to make a Jelly Shot that used a liqueur.

Orange Maple Pecan Bourbon Jelly Shots.

I recently went to Total Wine (if you don’t have one of these I feel sad for you because it’s the adult candy store :D).

Bought a ton of booze.

Like, a ton.

When I bought the Maple Pecan Liqueur I knew it would go well with bourbon I was just not sure what flavor gelatin to put with it.

Then I remembered these tarts.

The Maple Pecan Liqueur is a cream based one so when it combines with the orange it’s going to separate.

That is fine.

You will just get a layered shot look and people will think how cool you are that you can do layered shots. 😀

Things to remember when making Jelly Shots.

When throwing a party, you’ll probably want to prepare 4-6 Jelly Shots for each guest.

This batch uses 6 ounces of gelatin and so you will get around 18-20 Jello shots.

If doing a half recipe and only using 3 ounces of gelatin you will only get 8-10 Jello shots depending on how you pour.

If using a garnish, don’t place the garnish on the jello shot until just ready to serve.

And as always it’s a great day to order my cookbook.
