I think rum would be a fine choice as an alternative alcohol. Red is the best flavor. However, I've never gotten even the slightest bit drunk off of Jello shots. I'm still not convinced the things aren't a big experiment in the placebo effect.

People are making the jello shots wrong. Jello shots are just about the easiest way to get blackout drunk.

I keep hearing this, but no matter the source of the shots, I never get nothin'. How many half filled Dixie cup-sized shots should I have to consume, typically, to feel like I've got 4 beers in me? What is the proper way to make them, anyway?
