Do you guys think it would be okay to use cruisers rather than plains vodka? I figured I could just use the flavour from the cruizer rather than buying already flavourefd gelatine.

Basically you mix the jelly as you would normally, only using 80% of the recommended liquid. Substitute 40% of the liquid for vodka, and the remaining 40% hot water, and mix until all jelly has melted away. Pour into ice cube containers, shot glasses, or a bowl will suffice and allow to set in the fridge. It depends on your fridge, but a few hours should be fine - but make well in advance.
Next is the fun part....drinking it. Well it's not so much drinking it as letting it slide down your throat. Don't worry you won't taste the vodka in it, the jelly is nice though. Don't eat too much, remember how much vodka is in it.
You can also try this recipe with Rum, although I wouldn't recommend the 80% alc rum, which I brought back from St. Lucia .

Just my word of advice, don't exceed over 50% vodka (or any other type of alcohol) because alcohol freezes at a temperature of under minus 200 or so degrees celcius. Meaning, your freezer will not set your jelly. And keep in mind of the alcohol content in each shot.
This is definitely the best plan to sneak alcohol into a party but still, jelly+something extra will be yummy to try out.
do like lemon or lime. something citrusy
