Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml / 8 fl oz) water
- 1 scoop electrolyte powder (raspberry lemonade flavor)
- 2 tbsps (30 ml / 1 fl oz) gelatin
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 silicone mold of your choice
Instructions
- Gelatin Activation: Sprinkle gelatin over water in a saucepan, letting it hydrate for several minutes until grainy texture develops.
- Gelatin Dissolution: Apply low heat while whisking gelatin mixture until completely smooth and transparent, avoiding boiling.
- Flavor Infusion: Transfer dissolved gelatin to measuring cup, then integrate fresh lemon juice and raspberry lemonade electrolyte powder, stirring until uniformly blended.
- Molding Process: Pour the liquid mixture into clean silicone molds, ensuring even distribution across each cavity for consistent gummy shapes.
- Chilling and Setting: Refrigerate molds for approximately one hour, allowing gummies to solidify and transform into firm, translucent treats.
- Preparation Finalization: Carefully extract gummies from molds, then transfer to a sealed container for refrigeration, preserving their quality for up to two weeks.
Notes
- Activate Gelatin Properly: Sprinkle gelatin evenly and let it absorb water completely to prevent clumping, ensuring a smooth texture in your final gummies.
- Control Heat Carefully: Use low, gentle heat when dissolving gelatin to maintain its structural integrity and prevent potential protein breakdown that could compromise gummy consistency.
- Ensure Thorough Mixing: Stir electrolyte powder and lemon juice thoroughly to create a uniform flavor distribution, avoiding potential pockets of concentrated taste.
- Optimize Refrigeration: Allow full setting time of one hour to guarantee perfect gummy structure and prevent premature breaking or crumbling during removal from the mold.
