- Decide on the caffeine dosage of your jello shots. Then determine how many caffeine pills you will need. A 6 oz Jello package makes about 30 shots, so figure how much caffeine you're going to need total, and divide that by the amount of caffeine per pill, which is usually 200mg. (E.g. 30 shots at 50mg each = 1500mg total, divided by 200mg = 7.5 pills needed.) In this article, 30 shots of 100mg each will be made, requiring 15 pills, but your dosage can vary by the desired intensity:
- Grind the caffeine pills with a mortar and pestle if available. Otherwise place the pills on a sheet of paper.
- Fold the paper in half, and go over it with a rolling pin or some other dense cylindrical object. Use moderate force so that you can crush them.
- Keep rolling until the powder is similar in consistency to somewhere between sugar and flour.
- Pour the ground up caffeine into a large bowl with the Jello powder, and mix thoroughly.
- Add the boiling water (follow the standard Jello recipe on the box for exact amount of water) and stir thoroughly. Keep stirring until all the caffeine has completely dissolved into the solution.
- Pour the solution evenly into 30 shot glasses (or small paper cups), and refrigerate for a few hours until jiggly.
50mg- Mild energy rush. About equal to the caffeine in a can of cola. 1
100mg- Enough energy for 80's dance night. Equals about a 2 ounce espresso.
200mg- Same dose as in 2.5 cans of Red Bull.
300mg- Twitching starts. Jello shots begin to taste very bitter.
400mg- Ingesting more than 400 mg of caffeine can be dangerous, with side effects including tremors, agitation, stomach ache, and irregular heartbeat. See Warnings.
