Raspberry Lemonade Electrolyte Gummies Recipe
The Raspberry Lemonade Electrolyte Gummies Recipe is a fun, healthy and refreshing snack. It is fruity, tangy and slightly sweet.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons gelatin powder
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1/2 cup warm water
Instructions
Prepare the Raspberries
- Place raspberries in a blender or bowl. Blend or mash until smooth. This creates a fresh and fruity base. Strain if you want a smoother texture.
Mix Lemon Juice and Coconut Water
- In a bowl, add lemon juice and coconut water. Stir well. This forms the electrolyte base that helps with hydration and energy.
Add Sweetener
- Add honey or maple syrup to the mixture. Stir until fully dissolved. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. It should be lightly sweet and refreshing.
Bloom the Gelatin
- In a small bowl, add gelatin to warm water. Let it sit for 2–3 minutes. This step helps the gummies set properly and become firm.
Heat the Mixture
- Pour raspberry puree, lemon mixture and gelatin into a saucepan. Heat on low flame. Stir gently until everything is fully combined. Do not boil.
Add Sea Salt
- Add a small pinch of sea salt. Stir well. This helps balance electrolytes and enhances the flavor naturally.
Fill the Molds
- Carefully pour the mixture into silicone molds. Use a dropper or spoon for accuracy. Work slowly to avoid spills.
Chill the Gummies
- Place molds in the fridge. Chill for at least 2–3 hours. The gummies will firm up and become chewy.
Remove and Store
- Take gummies out of molds gently. Store them in an airtight container. Keep them in the fridge for freshness.
Notes
- Use strawberries instead of raspberries for a sweeter taste
- Add lime juice for extra citrus flavor
- Use agar agar instead of gelatin for vegan version
- Add chia seeds for extra nutrition
- Freeze molds for faster setting
- Adjust sweetness based on fruit ripeness
