Now there's a fun bite-size way to enjoy a glass of wine!
Because why drink your wine, when you can eat it?
First, we had vodka bear popsicles. Then came the champagne bubbly bears ... And now we have wine gummy bears!
The latest gummy bear trend everyone is jumping onboard to try is wine-infused gummy bears. They look and sound absolutely delicious!
Can you imagine a better boozy treat to take along with you on date night as a movie snack (c'mon, I can't be the only one who's thought of that!)?!
And thanks to Jessica Pinney from Cooking with Janica, we now have a super-easy recipe you can follow to make all types of wine gummies!
Looks easy to me!
This would be a fun activity for you and your girlfriends before a night out on the town or as a late night snack for you and your boo.
Or, if you're like me, to feast on alone with your dog on a Saturday night, with Netflix.
Whatever floats your boat!
Here is the super easy wine-infused gummy bear recipe — your choice of red, white or rosé — courtesy of Cooking with Janica!
Prep time:
5 minutes.
Cook time:
90 minutes
Total time:
1 hour 35 minutes
Serves:
Makes about 125 Gummy Bears
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup Wine
- ½ Cup Sugar
- 3 Tablespoons or 6 packets of powdered Gelatin
- 1 drop pink food coloring (if making Rosé Gummy Bears)
- 2-3 Gummy Bear Molds
Instructions:
- Place the wine, sugar, and gelatin in a saucepan over medium-low heat (if you want to keep the alcohol in, make sure to keep under 90 degrees). Whisk for 2-3 minutes or until sugar and gelatin have dissolved. (Stir in the pink food coloring if making Rosé gummy bears.)
- Using a glass measuring cup with a spout, pour the mixture over the gummy bear molds. Use an offset spatula to get rid of the excess and ensure all the molds are filled.
- Refrigerate for at least 90 minutes.
- When gelatin has set, bears will easily pop out from the mold.
- Store uneaten wine gummy bears in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
