FAQs
Can I use any type of fruit juice for these gummies?
Yes, most fruit juices work well, but choose ones without added sugars or preservatives for the healthiest option. Citrus juices are popular, but berries and apple juice also work nicely.

Notes

- Adjust the amount of honey based on your sweetness preference or dietary needs.
- Gelatin used should be unflavored and preferably from grass-fed sources for higher quality.
- These gummies are not suitable for vegetarians or vegans due to the gelatin content.
- For a fun twist, add vitamin C powder or probiotics after heating but before chilling to boost health benefits.
- Make sure not to boil the juice as high heat can reduce the gelatin’s effectiveness and degrade nutrients.
