Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup dill pickle juice
- 1 tablespoon gelatin powder (unflavored)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (or sweetener of your choice)
- A few drops of food coloring (optional)
- Gummy worm molds or any fun shape
Instructions
- Combine your ingredients: Pour the dill pickle juice into a small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin powder on top. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.
- Heat it up: Place your saucepan on the stove over medium heat and stir gently until the gelatin dissolves completely.
- Sweeten the deal: Add the sugar (or sweetener) until fully dissolved, and add food coloring if desired.
- Mold those worms: Carefully pour the mixture into your gummy worm molds.
- Chill out: Place the molds in the fridge for about 2-3 hours or until firm.
- Release the worms: Once set, gently remove the gummies from the molds.
- Serve and enjoy: Place your gummies in a serving dish and watch the delightful expressions.
Notes
- No Molds? No Worries! If you don’t have gummy molds, you can use a baking dish lined with parchment paper. Just cut them into squares once they’ve set!
- Storage Tip: Keep your gummies in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Just remember, they won’t last long if your friends get wind of them!
- Flavor Adventure: Feeling bold? Try adding a sprinkle of chili powder for a spicy kick or switching up the pickle juice with jalapeño juice for a zesty surprise!
