Ingredients
- 2 cups organic tart cherry juice (or pomegranate, raspberry, or orange juice)
- 4 tablespoons grass-fed beef gelatin
- 2 scoops unflavored collagen peptides (approximately 20–25 grams protein)
- 1 tablespoon raw honey (optional)
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- Silicone gummy bear molds
- Saucepan
- Whisk
- Dropper or squeeze bottle
Instructions
- Pour the 2 cups of organic tart cherry juice into a saucepan over low heat. Do not boil.
- Slowly sprinkle the 4 tbsp grass-fed gelatin into the warm juice while whisking continuously until completely dissolved.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the 2 scoops collagen peptides and whisk until smooth.
- Drizzle in the 1 tbsp raw honey and continue whisking until fully incorporated.
- Squeeze 1 tsp of fresh lemon juice into the mixture and whisk again until completely smooth.
- Continue whisking for about 30 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth with no visible clumps.
- Carefully transfer the mixture into a squeeze bottle and fill each cavity of the silicone gummy mold. Transfer the filled mold to the refrigerator and chill for 2–3 hours until firm.
- Once fully set, gently remove each gummy from the silicone mold. Arrange the finished collagen gummies on a white serving plate alongside fresh cherries and the collagen container.
