Ingredients

Scale

Blueberry Gummy Bear Mixture

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup natural blueberry juice
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent

Mocktail Base

  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup carbonated water
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional)
  • Granulated sugar (natural), to taste

Garnishes

  • Lemon slices
  • Fresh mint sprigs
  • Homemade blueberry gummy bears

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Blueberry Mixture: Start by blending fresh blueberries with blueberry juice and granulated sugar. Warm the mixture gently over low heat until the sugar dissolves completely and the flavors meld beautifully, taking care not to overheat.
  2. Add Natural Gelling Agent: Gradually sprinkle the natural gelling agent into the warm blueberry mixture while stirring continuously to ensure even distribution and avoid lumps. This will create the gummy texture characteristic of the mocktail.
  3. Mold the Gummy Bears: Pour the mixture into small silicone bear molds and refrigerate until fully set and firm. Once ready, carefully remove the gummy bears to be used as a fun garnish or mixed into the drink.
  4. Mix the Mocktail Base: In a glass or pitcher, combine fresh lemon juice, carbonated water, apple cider vinegar, and optionally fresh mint leaves. Adjust the sweetness by adding granulated sugar to taste, stirring gently to blend all ingredients.
  5. Assemble and Serve: Add a handful of the homemade blueberry gummy bears to the serving glass, pour the lemon mocktail base over them, and garnish with a lemon slice or mint sprig for a colorful and aromatic presentation.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor and color.
  • Keep the blueberry mixture on low heat to preserve natural taste and vibrant color.
  • Add the natural gelling agent gradually while stirring to prevent lumps.
  • Refrigerate the gummy bears long enough to ensure a firm texture.
  • Taste the mocktail base before serving and adjust sweetness as needed.
