Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 cups cubed watermelon
- 3/4 cup lime juice
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup gelatin
Optional
- Granulated sweetener (like this)
Instructions
- Add the watermelon to a blender or food processor and blend until fully liquid. Using a fine mesh strainer set over a medium pot, strain out the juice using a silicone spatula to push down the watermelon pulp. You should have about 1 1/2 cups of watermelon juice.
- Add the lime juice, honey, and vanilla to the watermelon juice. Whisk to combine.
- Sprinkle the gelatin over the watermelon mixture and lightly mix. Allow to harden for 2 minutes.
- Transfer the pot to the stove and heat over low heat for 3-4 minutes or until fully liquid.
- Carefully pour the gummy mixture into the mold (use a dropper for small molds) or into a large glass container.
- Transfer to the fridge for 4-6 hours or until fully set.
- Remove from the mold (slicing into squares if you used a glass container). Toss the gummies in a bowl with granulated sweetener if desired and serve chilled.
Notes
The monk fruit sweetener is the closest look and feel to regular sugar, but it melts if you keep it in the fridge! If you do add the sweetener, just keep in mind that it won’t keep the same texture in the fridge for longer storage.
