Bloom the gelatin: In a medium bowl, pour in the cold apple cider and sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the top. Give it a gentle stir just to make sure all the powder is moistened — no need to go wild here. Stirring too much can make it clumpy.

Let it sit: Let the mixture rest for about 3 minutes to let the gelatin bloom and do its thing.

Dissolve the gelatin: Now pour in the hot apple cider and stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.

Add the booze: Stir in the Fireball. Give it a quick mix to combine.

Fill and chill: Pour the mixture into your shot cups, filling each about ¾ of the way full. Transfer them to the fridge and chill for at least 2 hours, or until they’re fully set.

Garnish and serve: Right before serving, add a swirl of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar, and a thin apple slice on top if you’re feeling fancy. Then pass them around — cheers!
