Homemade RockStar Gummies!

With Spring on its way it's time to whip up something fresh & creative! These homemade RockStar Gummies are a lot of fun to make! Depending on preference of taste you may want to mix different flavors of fruit & juice before you find the perfect combo. The Strawberry Orange flavor used in this recipe was great, but very healthy tasting so please keep that in mind while making. Enjoy!

-1/4 cup Lemon Juice (or freshly squeezed)

-1/4 cup Lime Juice (or freshly squeezed)

- 3 oranges 

- 2 cups strawberries

-5 packets of Original Gelatin (Unflavored) 

-1 tablespoon honey

-Squeeze as much juice from the orange as a possible (should equal 1/2 cup)

-Measure 1/4 cup of lemon juice and 1/4 cup of lime juice

-Remove mixture from stove and add to a blender or food processor. Add 1 tbsp of honey

-Let the mixture simmer on medium until fruit is extra soft.

-After the mixture has slightly cooled, add five packets of gelatin to the blender. 

-Blend until there are no clumps.

-Add to a flat baking sheet or tin.

(the thickness of your pan should be determined on how thick you prefer your gummy bears to be)

-Add to refrigerator for one hour to firm. 

-After your gummy mixture has cooled and firmed, remove it from refrigerator. 

-Cut out gummy stars with a extra small cutter. Feel free to use any shape you’d like.
