Directions

  1. 1Start by pureeing and then straining fresh peaches.
  2. 2Add the peach puree to a saucepan with your favorite sweetener, like honey, agave, or maple syrup.
  3. 3Combine freshly squeezed lemon juice and gelatin in a separate bowl. Typically, water is used, but lemon juice enhances the peach flavor.
  4. 4Add the gelatin mixture to the heated peach mixture and stir until it's dissolved.
  5. 5Divide the mixture in half and add cherry juice concentrate to one half.
  6. 6Use two droppers to fill the molds with both colors for that characteristic peach ring look.
  7. 7Refrigerate for an hour and a half to set.
  8. 8Remove from the molds and place on a wire rack to dry out overnight at room temperature.
  9. 9Enjoy them plain or coat them in a mixture of sugar and citric acid for a sour treat.

Tips

  • The key is to let them dry out overnight at room temperature so they actually have a gummy chewy texture.
  • These contain so much less sugar than most store-bought peach rings, and the real fruit flavor really comes across.
  • Don't bring the peach mixture to a boil, which will denature the gelatin.
