If Thanksgiving with your family or friends means indulging in a little adult (alcoholic) fun, this apple pie jello shot recipe is a fun and festive way to get into the holiday spirit.

From [Refinery29](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/les-aimants), the shots are made out of apple juice (apple cider will also work), brown sugar, Knox gelatin, whipped cream-flavored vodka and mini graham cracker pie crusts (like the packages from [Keebler](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keebler-chips-deluxe)). For topping, you can use whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.

The apple pie jello shot is essentially the traditional Thanksgiving dessert in a bite-sized alcoholic form. A certain step up from the gelatinous shooters you probably enjoyed in college, the "fancy-ass, classy Jell-O shots" are also easy to make.
