 Welcome to Drinks Made Easy. Today, Mike's pretty excited about what we're going to make a jelly gummy bear. We're going to make a jelly gummy bear. We're going to make a homemade alcoholic gummy bear. Gummy bear. Gummy bear. You're served by adding one and two thirds cups of strawberry puree. Now, if you want to use a different fruit, you can do that. Really, it's just simple as putting it into the food processor or a blender. Fruit of your choice. I generally recommend a sweet fruit. Next, you're going to add two and a half tablespoons of lemon juice. And I think it's kind of funny with a sour citrus is it's actually going to help make the sugar come out more. And next we have six and a half ounces of sugar. Then we're going to go with one and two thirds cups of rum. The next step is going to be to add gelatin, but you don't want to be adding heat yet because that is going to add to the clumping. Now, adding the gelatin slowly is one of the longest parts of this process. But if you speed it up, you're going to end up with a mess where you're going to have a bunch of large clumps in your gummy bear. So if you're using powdered gelatin, there really isn't any way around just doing this slowly. Alright, so now we have everything mixed in and the gelatin is not clumped. We're going to start to add medium-low heat and we're going to stir it occasionally. Now, when you're using a natural fruit solid, it's going to look a little bit different than it would if you were using a juice. In that there is a little bit of a jelly texture to it right now. The next thing that you're going to be looking at of knowing when the gelatin is heated up to the degree it needs to be fully integrated is that the substance is going to start to get kind of a glassy sheen to it. And once you reach that, you're good to take it off the heat. While you're allowing your mixture to cool to about room temperature, you're going to want to prepare your mold. Now, there's all sorts of different molds, but you can get a large gummy bear mold like this on Amazon. Now, one of the main things you're going to want to do in prepping your mold is spray with some sort of vegetable spray, or if you're feeling like you want to spend a couple extra bucks, grab a bottle of Vageline. But today we're just going to use a little bit of regular canola spray. So after giving it a good spray, just use a paper towel to get a little bit of coverage over the entire mold without wiping it all out. And once you've allowed it to cool down and you've prepared your mold, go ahead and pour in your mixture. After refrigerating it overnight, you're just going to pop it out of its mold. And this is the main reason why we're using a little bit of Vageline or a little bit of vegetable spray, because it will pop right out if you do. And that's how you make a homemade alcoholic gummy bear that tastes way better than the commercial store bought version of just dumping it in alcohol. It's so good. It's so pretty. I love it. It keeps it and take care of it. I need him, Greg. You know we're going to eat that, right?
