Sour Strawberry + Lemon Gummies

GF V Vegan option

Gummies made with gelatin or agar agar are a fun, easy to make, and healthy snack for all ages. Swap out refined sugar sweet and lollies and choose home-made gummies that can even hide plenty of vitamins within for the little ones.

Looking for a healthier option?

Gelatin of choice – there is now a number of gelatin options on the market, marine based, grass-fed beef, or agar agar (vegan option).

I have chosen ‘GelatinHealth Digestive Health’ a food grade non-hydrolyzed (< this is important for creating a gel-like substance), grass-fed beef gelatin.

Ingredients

GelatinHealth Digestive Health gelatin powder

1 cup filtered water

Juice of a whole lemon

1 Tbsp. raw honey or maple syrup.

1x Punnet Strawberries

TIP / For greater therapeutic benefits, steep herbal tea bags in boiled water for 5-10 minutes before removing and adding gelatin. Use a sleep blend like chamomile, passionflower, lavender, lemon balm for calming gummies, Echinacea and elderberry for immune support, calendula and nettle for skin, or simply whichever is your favourite herbal tea.
