When it comes to Starburst I am hands down a Pink Starburst girl through and through.
Then again I’m a strawberry flavored anything fan.
When I get my bag of Starburst I will fully admit I am bummed if I see more yellow ones than pink.
Which is pretty much the case each time (same with Skittles).
Ironically because I needed to have yellow Starburst for the photos the bag I got had hardly any yellow in it. 😀
And while I don’t actively seek out yellow Starburst I certainly will eat them.
Because they are lemon flavored and because they are sugar.
Two things I like.
So if they aren’t my favorite why on Earth would I make Yellow Starburst Jelly Shots?
Because I like lemon with booze.
And I really like the Starburst Gelatin they came out with.
The flavor of the Starburst candy really comes through and well, that’s what I’m looking for.
If you can’t find the gelatin (it’s normally at Walmart and on Amazon) you can always use lemon gelatin.
But know that it’s not going to have the same flavor but it will still be tasty.
So even if you don’t reach for the yellow Starburst immediately out of the bag you may change your mind about them after making them in Jelly Shot form.
And after about three of them it won’t matter. 😛
My favorite lemon vodka is Deep Eddy Lemon Vodka…I get it at Total Wine.
But I’ve seen it at Target as well.
P.S. It’s a great day to order my cookbook.
