Notes

Ensure each Jello layer is fully set before adding the next to create distinct lines.
Cool each Jello mixture for 10 minutes before pouring to prevent melting the previous layer.
Use clear shot cups for the best visual effect of the layers.
For easier pouring, transfer Jello mixtures to a liquid measuring cup with a spout.
