Ingredients
- ½ cup blueberries frozen
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1.5 tablespoons elderberries freeze dried
- ⅓ cup water
- 0.5 tbs acai powder
- ¼ cup coconut water
- 2.5 tbs gelatin
- ⅓ cup water boiling
Instructions
- In a small pot, combine the elderberries and ⅓ cup of water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a rolling boil for 5 minutes.
- Mash the elderberries with a fork. Use a small mesh strainer to strain the water and elderberry "juice" out (roughly ⅛ cup)
- In a blender, add the blueberries, acai powder, honey, elderberry juice and coconut water. Blend until smooth. Get your molds ready.
- Boil ⅓ cup of water. In a large measuring bowl, whisk the water and gelatin really well.
- Very quickly pour the blender mixture into the measuring cup with the water and gelatin. Continue to whisk to ensure no clumps remain.
- Quickly pour the mixture into the molds, taking care to re-whisk if you're moving slowly.
- Place molds into the fridge to set (about 3 hours)

Notes
- How many the batch makes will depend on the mold you choose. With the molds linked you get roughly 15.
- You can eat 1-2 elderberry gummies each day when trying to boost your immune system.
- When making the gummy bears, you need to move fast as gelatin binds very quickly. Make sure everything is ready before you mix the gelatin.
- These particular homemade gummies are a bit dense for my personal liking, but my daughters love them. If you like them a bit more "gummy" take half a tablespoon of gelatin away.
