Ingredients

2 Cups Fruit Juice such as orange, apple, or a blend of your favorite vegetable and juice blends
3-5 Tablespoons Honey or maple syrup, adjust according to sweetness preference
4 Tablespoons Gelatin Powder
Fresh fruit pieces or citrus zest for added texture and flavor optional

Instructions

Prepare the Juice Mixture. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the 1 ½ Cups of juice. Add in the honey and adjust to your taste. Stir until combined.
Into a small bowl, add the remaining ½ cup of juice. Gradually whisk in the gelatin powder, ensuring no lumps form and whisk until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the mixture into the warm juice and stir until combined. When the juice mixture is hot, but not boiling, pour into molds.
Once the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth, carefully pour the juice mixture into your chosen gummy molds (like gummy bear molds or a shallow loaf pan). For bite-sized pieces, you can also use a glass dish or baking tray.
Place the filled molds on a baking sheet and let them set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm and chewy.
Pop the gummies out of the molds or slice them into bite-sized pieces if using a dish. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Once set, gently pop the gummies out of the molds or cut them into squares if using a dish. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
