Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup boiling water
- 2 tablespoons gelatin 0.5 oz (two packets)
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice, strong tea or sugar-free flavoring of choice I used the juice of one lemon, but you can use herbal tea, green tea, or any sort of sugar-free flavoring. See note below on using fruit juices like raspberry
- 15-20 drops stevia or to taste
Instructions
- While water is boiling, add gelatin, juice and stevia together in a heat-safe bowl and stir.
- Pour boiling water into bowl and stir until gelatin is fully dissolved.
- Using a silicone gummy bear mold with a dropper, portion the liquid into each of the cavities.
- Place mold on a tray in the fridge until solidified, approximately 15 minutes. You will need to repeat the process if you only have one tray. This recipe makes about two-three trays of gummy bears (depending on the tray size).
- Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
