Directions

  1. 1Blend fresh fruit, such as grapes, strawberry, watermelon and pineapple.
  2. 2Combine freshly squeezed lemon juice with gelatin in a bowl.
  3. 3Stir well and set aside.
  4. 4Add blended fruit to a pot with honey.
  5. 5Heat to at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit before stirring in the gelatin until it's melted.
  6. 6Heat pineapple for a little bit longer because it has enzymes that prevent setting.
  7. 7Let the mixture cool slightly and then use a dropper to fill the molds.
  8. 8Refrigerate them for about 90 minutes until they're set and then remove from the molds.
  9. 9Leave them out overnight on a rack to dry out, which concentrates the flavor and gives them that chewy gummy texture.
