These Fuzzy Navel Jello Shots are so much fun. They’re one of our favorite jello shot recipes with the orange and peach flavors inspired by the classic Fuzzy Navel cocktail.

Why we love this recipe-

These are perfect for a Summer party, pool party, bachelorette party, girl’s brunch, and more.
These have such a unique flavor with the orange juice and peach schnapps, with unflavored gelatin, the ingredients can really shine.

Step 3: Prepare the Shots & Chill
Divide evenly between the 2 oz. cups, and move to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours.

Step 4: Garnish
Before serving, top each shot with a Peachie-O candy.

Substitutions & Tips:

You can swap the peach candies for fresh peach slices, and even top these with whipped cream, if you prefer. You can swap for any toppings you like- even a maraschino cherry or an orange wedge,
We didn’t include vodka in these, but you could swap 1/2 cup of the peach schnapps for 1/2 cup vodka, peach vodka, Crown Royal peach, or even 1/2 cup white rum.
If you prefer not to use Knox gelatin, swap that for 1 box of peach or orange jell-o. If you use a box of orange jello or peach, still use the other ingredients we suggest in place of water on the box directions.

FAQs

Can you put too much alcohol in jello shots?

Yes! Definitely stick with the ratios we recommend, if you add too much alcohol the shots won’t set up properly.

What is the easiest way to get the jello into the little cups?

I like to use a 2 cup measuring cup to fill the 2 ounce cups, refilling it, as needed, until the jello is all into cups.

How should I store jello shots?

Keep these refrigerated until ready to serve, because jello shots can return to liquid when left at room temperature or higher. These cups do come with lids, so you can put lids on them and stack them in the refrigerator.

What is the trick to eating jello shots?

You definitely want to make jello shots in plastic cups that you can squeeze, that makes them easier to eat. Glass shot glasses just don’t work for jello shots. With plastic cups you can squeeze the sides to loosen the jello, as well. Some people recommend using non-stick spray for jello shots, but I don’t think that gives them the best taste.
