Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Blanco Tequila Chilled
  • 1/2 cup Lime Juice Freshly squeezed and chilled
  • 1/4 cup Water Cold
  • 3 envelopes Unflavored Gelatin (About 3/4 oz or 21g)
  • 1/4 cup Agave Nectar or Light Corn Syrup

Equipment

  • 1 Small saucepan
  • 2 Silicone Candy Molds (Wand-shaped or similar)
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Measuring cups and spoons

Instructions
 

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the cold lime juice and water. Sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the surface. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes without stirring to bloom.
  2. Place the saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until the gelatin has completely dissolved. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat once smooth.
  3. Stir in the agave nectar until combined. Let the mixture cool for 10-15 minutes, until just warm. Stir in the chilled tequila.
  4. Carefully pour the mixture into your silicone wand molds. A dropper can help with this step.
  5. Refrigerate the molds for at least 4-6 hours, or until the gummies are completely firm.
  6. Carefully unmold the gummies and place them on a wire rack at room temperature for 24-48 hours. This creates a chewier, more authentic gummy texture.

Notes

For the best texture, don't skip the air-drying step. It makes a huge difference!
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
