How many jello shots can I make with one 750mL bottle of liquor?

Question

throwing a big party and want around 300 - 400 jello shots, but I don't know how many bottles of liquor to get...

Answer 1

I've never made jello shots before but assuming 1/2 and 1/2 water and alcohol, you have to figure out how many shots you can make out of one package of jello mix and divide 350 (as an average number of shots between 300 and 400) by the number of shots per box in order to find the number of boxes of mix. Then multiply 16 oz of alcohol by the number of boxes to get the total amount of alcohol needed. Then divide that by the number of ounces on the bottle of liquor to find how many bottles.

For reference, 750 mL = 25.4 oz

So...

Let x = number of shots per box of jello mix

Let y = number of boxes of jello mix

Let z = total amount of alcohol in oz

* = multiply

350 shots / x = y

y * 16oz = z

z / oz per bottle = number of bottles of liquor needed for about 350 jello shots

Answer 2

When making Jello shots, you substitute 1/2 the water with the vodka. So it would depend on the amount of water per box of Jello.

Answer 3

8 oz's makes about 20 jello shots

Answer 4

Answer 5

here's an easy way to find out how much alcohol you need to buy first what is considered that would be 33ml so half would be 16.5 so you divide 750 by 16.5 and get 45-46 jellow shots. lets just say you want 350 jellows shots you then divide 350 by 45 and get 7.8. so i would recomend either seven or eight bottles depending on you budget.
