Equipment

  • 2 Cupcake Trays
  • 1 Pan to boil water for jello

Ingredients
  

  • 1 6 oz box Orange Jello The small box
  • 1 Cup Boiling Water
  • 3/4 Cup Vodka
  • 9 Tangerines You may need more depending on how the size of your tangerines-no more than one bag

Garnish

  • 1 Large Lime To make little curls to look like pumpkin leaves
  • 18 Skinny Pretzel Sticks

Instructions
 

  • Cut each of your tangerines in half through the middle and peel out all the fruit leaving only the clean shell
  • Place each shell in a cupcake tin so the jello won't spill
  • Boil one cup of water and dissolve the jello in a glass pyrex cup
  • Add 3/4 cup of Vodka and stir well
  • Fill each tangerine cup with your jello shot mixture and refrigerate overnight or at least 4-5 hours
  • After gelled add your garnishes

Garnish

  • Cut lime in half and use spoon to disconnect the fruit from the rind
  • Cut very thin strips with scissors or a knife about 1 1/2 inch long and twirl to make a curl
  • Snap off 1/8 inch of pretzel stick so it's the right height to look like a "stem" and stick in the middle of each gelled jello shot
  • Add each lime curl right next to the pretzel stick to look like a leaf
