1) Download JDK

2) Android Studio -> File -> Project structure -> JDK location. Point at where you have installed it.

You can use cmd + ; for Mac or Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S for Windows/Linux to pull up the Project Structure dialog. In there, you can set the JDK location as well as the Android SDK location.

Project Structure Dialog

Use embedded JDK or else point to your JDK directory. To get your JDK location, run /usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7 in terminal. Send 1.7 for Java 7 or 1.8 for Java 8.
