TGIF : Game Day Cocktails!

Mojito Jell-O Shots with White Rum and Fresh Mint.

These inspired Jello-O shots are not what you remember from college Frat parties. Instead of combining vodka with flavored Jell-O mix, celeb chef Michael Symon starts by making delish mojitos and then stirs unflavored gelatin into the mint-and-lime-spiced rum drink. For that sophisticated Game Day Tailgate party.

Lemonade spiked cocktail

Everything goes better with Jameson Whiskey, like this simple but tasty lemonade. Another great tip — make these ahead in mason jars and pack in a cooler. So you can concentrate on more important things, like grilling those burgers.

Don’t fumble on the cocktails for all-important game day! Keep it simple but use the good stuff, like EFFEN vodka. You can whip up some Blood Orange Mimosas in the time it takes you to yell ‘Touch Down!’

EFFEN® Blood Orange Mimosa

Ingredients:

1 part EFFEN® Blood Orange Vodka

1 part Orange Juice

3 parts Sparkling Wine

Method: Shake first two ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled champagne flute. Top with sparkling wine.

Tailgate responsibly, people!
