Ingredients

for a lemon-lime version:
PREP TIME: 10 minutes
COOKING TIME: 5 minutes (CHILL TIME: 60+ minutes)
YIELD: 4 servings
ingredients
3/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup water (optional, depending on how sour you like things – without it these are quite sour!)
zest from lemons and/or limes as desired
1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, but will be very tart without this)
4-5 tablespoons grass-fed gelatin, (orange/red package will gel, the green will not)

Preparation

Step 1

In a small pot over medium-low heat, whisk the lemon juice, lime juice, water (optional), zest, maple syrup, and gelatin together vigorously until the gelatin is well dissolved and the mixture becomes a nice slurry.

Pour the mixture into a small glass or ceramic dish, preferably 6×9″ or so. The smaller the pan, the thicker your gummies will be. For thinner gummies (to cut into “worms,” for example), use a larger pan.
Chill in the refrigerator until completely set, approximately 30 minutes.
