Shots, shots, shots!

We're having an all day (1pm-whenever) BBQ type party and have sent out invitations for 75 people. Its BYOB but we're providing Jello and pudding shots. How many of each type would you make? I'll be doing 2 flavors of each type so 4 different kinds total. Most people will have at least one. I'm thinking 150 jello shots and 150 pudding shots, but I'd rather have some left over than run out. Thanks.

Only you know how boozy your crowd is, but that works out to four shots per person. That's probably more than I'd want and I'd probably opt for a regular drink instead (are you offering other alcohol?).

I agree.  I would be wasted.  If you want to have extras, it sounds like a safe number.  I think that everyone is BYOB other than these shots.

Yeah, it does sound like a lot. We can be a pretty boozy crowd (my SIL had to drive my MIL & FIL home from our wedding afterparty), but people will bring their own 6 pack or whatever to drink during the day so I could probably cut the number of shots down. There'll be a few couples who stay the night too. We're not providing any other alcohol.

Sounds like a good number to me, but then again my friends are known to demolish trays of jell-o shots and are known boozy people. There was a reason I went without some prettier flowers/table linens and made sure we had a bus to get people back to the hotel after my wedding.

Eh, if I run out I'll just make regular drinks for those who are left. Or non-chilled jello shots, lol! We're klassy
