Getting the kids involved with making these homemade gummies is a fantastic way to spend some time together. They will love seeing how to make DIY gummies, and it’s a great time to talk about the science behind it too. You can’t go wrong with these gummies, especially when you only need 3 ingredients.
There are all sorts of candy molds on the market, and you could easily make these fruit juice gummies for all sorts of holidays and events. Just choose juice with a different color and you can make easy and delicious gummies for Valentine’s Day, Christmas, Easter, and the list goes on and on.

Easy Shamrock Fruit Juice Gummies
Yields – 18 gummies
Ingredients
1 cup all-natural fruit juice (I used Naked Green Machine)
1 tablespoon honey
3 tablespoons beef gelatin powder
Shamrock silicone mold (I got mine at Michael’s, but it looks like Amazon has one with possibly bigger shamrocks)
Directions
1. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 cup juice over medium heat.
2. Stir in honey and gelatin. Continue to stir as the mixture thickens and then thins to an even consistency.
3. Spoon approximately 1 Tablespoon of gummy mixture into each silicone well, or use an eyedropper like I did. Refrigerate 2 hours before removing from silicone mold and serving. Enjoy your homemade shamrock fruit juice gummies!
