Blue (orange mango)
1 cup Orange Juice, Divided
1/4 cup Mango, Puréed
1/4 cup Grass Fed Gelatin
1 – 2 Tbsp Honey, Optional
1 pinch Spirulina Powder, Blue*
Green (peach lemonade)
1 cup No Sugar Added Lemonade
1/4 cup Peaches, Puréed
1/4 cup Grass Fed Gelatin
1 – 2 Tbsp Honey, Optional
1 pinch Matcha Green Tea Powder, *
Filling
3/4 cup Frozen Strawberries
1 Tbsp Arrowroot Flour
1 1/2 Tbsp Water
Make filling- thaw strawberries (frozen allows for more juices), then puree with a squeeze of lemon juice
Put on stovetop over low heat
Mix arrowroot with water until dissolved. Once Berry puree is warm add arrowroot mixture. It will thicken. Set aside away from heat
For each gummy flavor:
Whisk 1/2 cup juice with gelatin. It will thicken into a gelatin bloom
Warm puréed fruit (I took frozen mango, let it thaw, then blend or process with a splash of juice if needed) and remaining 1/2 cup juice on stovetop
Once warm stir in gelatin mixture
If adding blue or green, mix that spirulina or matcha powder with a bit of water to dissolve it, then add to your fruit and juice mixture until desired shade is achieved
Pour or syringe into the bottom half of a silicone mold
Refrigerate for 20 min
Place filling in a piping bag or syringe and dollop onto the center of gummies
Top with remaining gummy juice mixture
Regurgitate an additional 30 min
Remove from mold and enjoy!
Keep stored in an airtight container in the fridge
