These Gatorade Jello Squares are the perfect half-time or end-of-game treat for your kid’s sports team! Use any flavor or mix and match and create your own favorite flavor. Just Jello and Gatorade!
Hey friends! I’m popping in today with the most obvious “recipe” of all time.
Actually it’s obvious maybe to the rest of the world except me…let me start at the beginning…
I have this friend, we’ll call her “Sheryl”, just for the heck of it.
Anyhow, my friend, “Sheryl” doesn’t like to cook at all. In fact when you mention kitchen things she visibly cringes.
BUT, while she’s not a cook, she’s a fairly smart person.
We’ll say fairly smart, because we don’t want her to get too cocky…
And although she doesn’t cook so much, she happens to be my kid’s favorite “Half-time snack bringer” to soccer games.
Because she makes these Gatorade Jello Squares that the kids go nuts for.
So today we are going to virtually high-five “Sheryl” and tell her good call on the Gatorade Jello Squares.
Now, let me steal her idea.
These Jello squares are so totally easy.
My kiddo was so excited I was making these he wanted to help.
How to Make Gatorade Jello Squares
First just pick your flavor Gatorade and measure it out…
You could use any flavor you prefer with any Jello flavor you like. Totally customizable!
Anyhow, heat the Gatorade up until is just starts to boil…
Grab your Jello…
Pour it into the hot Gatorade…
And then stir it for 3 minutes to dissolve completely.
Pour that into a 9×13 pan…
And chill it!
I made Red, Green and Purple squares so the kids all had options!
So easy.
Your kids will for SURE love these!
And yes, before you ask, My friend, “Sheryl” told me these can totally be made with low sugar Gatorade and Sugar free jello!

Showing my age but long, long ago they were “knox blocks”!!:>}
Just wondering…did you spray the dish with cooking spray before you added the mixture or did they release ok without it? Thanks!! 🙂
I haven’t had jello in SO long, and this totally has me craving jello again! Yum!
How funny is this! I just made Dr. Pepper Jello squares the other day! Great minds think alike! I will definitely be trying the Gatorade too…my kids will go bonkers for all the colors!
Wow!! This is such a brilliant idea! I cannot wait to try it this weekend. Thanks for sharing.
This is awesome. Definitely going to have these out at the next pool party 🙂
hahaha!!! Your friend, “Sheryl” is a genius! 😀 LOL! But on a serious note, what you have done is just absolute genius! Gatorade jello??? Now I know I want several blobs of this!!!!!
LOL. What???? I seriously haven`t had jello in a longgg time. But, I`m totally tempted to try this out because it`ll be so cool.
I haven’t had jello blocks like this in ages (jello shots yes, LOL but not like this). They’d be perfect b/c I just ran a half marathon over the weekend and am running so much lately with lots of races coming up & gatorade always hits the spot. Perfect & pinned!
What a great idea! I used to drink Gatorade all the time when I was younger, I sure would’ve loved these. 🙂
