Prep Time 10 mins

Set time 15 minutes in the freezer or 2 hours in fridge

Ingredients:

2 x tbsp Manuka Egmont honey

2 tbsp gelatine 

2 x teaspoon crushed ginger

1 cup freshly squeezed juice (suggested combination: ½ cup lemon juice, ¼ cup orange juice, ¼ cup grapefruit juice)

1 cup water

Make them fancy:

Freeze dried fruit of your choice

Edible flowers

Instructions:

• Firstly, get all your ingredients for your juice ready.
• In a small saucepan set over medium low heat, whisk together juice and honey until combined together and take off the heat.
• In a measuring jug, add your gelatine to 1/4 cup water, stir well and set aside for 4-6 minutes until it has combined.
• Very slowly pour the gelatine mixture into your honey and juice mixture whisking the whole time until the mixture becomes syrup-like in texture. 
• From here, pour your mixture into silicon moulds or a lightly oiled 8×8-inch baking dish. If you are adding any extra ingredients, do so now. Gently place the edible flowers or freeze-dried fruit in the moulds with the mixture.
• Freeze for 10-15 minutes or pop in the fridge to set which will take 2 hours. 
• Pop the gummies out of the moulds or slice into small bites if using a dish. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
