In a medium-sized mixing bowl, dissolve the lime-flavored gelatin mix completely in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir for about 2 minutes until fully dissolved.
Add 1 cup of cold water, 3/4 cup of silver tequila, 1/4 cup of triple sec, and 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice to the dissolved gelatin mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine.
Carefully pour the mixture into 12 individual 2-ounce plastic or silicone shot cups, leaving a little room at the top for easy handling.
Place the shot cups on a tray or baking sheet for stability, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Before serving, optionally moisten the rims of the shot cups with a lime wedge and dip them into salt for garnish to mimic a margarita rim.
Garnish each shot with a small slice of lime, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy responsibly!
