Notes

Pro Tips: Having a party need something less messy?
Once your Jell-O has set add a zig zag of Chamoy to the top of the shot then cover with the lid and store for later.
Serve with Mini Tajin Packets (Amazon Link) or even a spicy lollipop to help scoop!
There are hundreds of different types of hot sauce out there, so feel free to experiment with different ones.
If you don't want your drink to be too spicy, simply omit the hot sauce or use less than what is called for in the recipe. You can always add more, but you can't take it away!
