A whimsical, spirited version of candy corn, showcasing striking layers of lemon, orange, and creamy white gelatin—this is a delightful Halloween indulgence.

This vibrant layered shot is inspired by traditional candy corn, featuring eye-catching layers of lemon, orange, and sweetened condensed milk gelatin, each enriched with Kōloa Kauaʻi Rum. It’s an ideal spirited dessert for a Halloween celebration and can be customized for any occasion with a variety of flavors and colors.

Ingredients (Serves 16):

Instructions:

Lemon Layer: Begin by adding 3/4 cup of boiling water to a small bowl. Introduce the lemon gelatin mix and stir until it’s fully dissolved. Next, measure 1 cup of Kōloa Kauaʻi Gold Rum using a glass measuring cup and add enough ice to reach a total of 1 1/4 cups. Combine this mixture with the lemon gelatin until it begins to thicken slightly, discarding any un-melted ice. Then, fill shot glasses a third of the way with the lemon gelatin mixture and place them in the refrigerator until set, which will take at least 90 minutes.

Orange Layer: For the orange layer, pour the remaining 3/4 cup of boiling water into the same small bowl. Add the orange gelatin mix and stir until fully dissolved. Measure out the remaining 1 cup of Kōloa Kauaʻi Gold Rum in a glass measuring cup, adding ice again to total 1 1/4 cups. Mix this with the orange gelatin until slightly thickened, removing any unmelted ice. Carefully pour this orange gelatin mixture over the previously set lemon gelatin layer. Return to the refrigerator until this layer has set as well, which will also take at least 90 minutes.

Milk Layer: Begin by pouring 2 tablespoons of warm water into a bowl. Add unflavored gelatin and mix until fully dissolved. Incorporate condensed milk and 1/2 cup of Kōloa Kauaʻi Spiced Rum into the mixture. Carefully pour this over the orange gelatin layer. Allow it to cool in the refrigerator until the top layer solidifies, which should take at least 30 minutes.

These gelatin shots offer flexibility for various celebrations by altering the colors and flavors of both the gelatin and the rum. The crucial point is to ensure that each layer is completely set prior to adding the subsequent one, which guarantees clean and distinct boundaries.
