How to Make
1st of all all you really need to do is follow the instructions on the Jello package, yet altering it just a little...or a lot =)
Take 1/2 cup of water and bring to boil
Pour 1 cup of coconut rum into another pourable container like a 2nd measuring cup.
Also Pour 1/2 cup of Black Cherry Rum into the container with the coconut rum.
Once the 1/2 cup of water is boiling, turn flame off and pour in Island Pineapple Jello Packet and stir for a minute.
Then pour the hot mixture into the container with the 2 rum mixtures.
Take the rum and jello mixture and pour till 1/2 of the condiment cup is full. Fill all cups 1/2 way and set in fridge for 30 minutes till set.
(Some cups I poured more/less just to play around with how much flavor I liked better in each)

After 30 Minutes
After 30 minutes the 1/2 filled jello shots should be ready! Wait!! DO NOT EAT YET =)
Now we need to do the exact same thing with the Black Cherry Jello. (or almost the same)

Pour 1/2 cup of coconut rum into another pourable container like a 2nd measuring cup.
Also Pour 1 cup of Black Cherry Rum into the container with the coconut rum.
Once the 1/2 cup of water is boiling, turn flame off and pour in Black Cherry Jello Packet and stir for a minute.
Then pour the hot mixture into the container with the 2 rum mixtures.
Take the rum and jello mixture and pour the other 1/2, till the cup is full. Let mixture sit in fridge 4 hours.
(notice I poured a few with just the pineapple and a few with just the black cherry, again...I'm experimenting)
