Equipment

  • 1 Measuring cup
  • 1 Saucepan
  • Silicone molds or an 8x8 glass baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Tart cherry juice
  • 44 grams Beef gelatin
  • 1/4 cup Honey

Instructions
 

  • Sprinkle the gelatin over the tart cherry juice and allow it to bloom, about 10 minutes (see note).
  • In a small saucepan, heat the juice mixture over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk in honey.
  • Pour the gelatin mixture into silicone molds or an 8x8 baking dish lined with parchment paper.
  • Allow the gummies to set in the refrigerator for about 1 hour (see note).

Notes

  1. When the gelatin is bloomed, you won't see any remaining powder, and the juice will be semi-solid with a bumpy top.
  2. Don't leave the gummies uncovered in the refrigerator for more than an hour, or they will form a crust on top.
