Lime Margarita Shooters.

What you need;
- 1 cup water
- 6 small limes/ 4 large limes
- 8oz tequila (most jello shooters call for 8oz, but I actually use a chill 4oz alcohol and 4oz water mix)
- 1 box lime jello
(EDIT)- After making these, and trying them, the next time I make them I would sub the water for a sweetened lime juice.


What to do;
- Cut your limes in half. Hollow them out by juicing them, flipping them inside-out, then finally pulling the lime from the peel



- Boil 1 cup of water. Once it comes to a boil, take it off the heat and whisk your boxed jello mix until dissolved
- Pour in your 8oz of chill tequila/ or 4oz tequila and 4oz water mix (TIP: when I know I am going to be making jello shots, I stick the alcohol (vodka, tequila) in the freezer the night before so I don't have to use ice to make it freezing cold)
- Carefully pour your boozy jello into your lime cups (like the picture shows above, I found it easiest to put the hollowed out lime peels into a muffin tin so they don't tip over and spill out the liquid)
- Let sit until the jello forms, enjoy!
