Equipment

Silicone gummy molds

Ingredients

2 cups watermelon cubes
1 cup frozen (or fresh) cherries thawed
3-4 tablespoon honey to taste
1 teaspoon citric acid to taste
5 tablespoon unflavored gelatin

Instructions

Use a blender to purée the watermelon cubes and cherries.
Add honey and citric acid and blend until well combined. Taste mixture and adjust quantity of honey or citric acid as needed.
Place mixture in a small saucepan and stir in 8 tablespoons of gelatin, one at a time, until completely dissolved.
On medium heat, cook mixture, stirring constantly, until it begins to bubble. Immediately remove from heat.
While mixture is still hot, use a dropper to pour it into the cavities of the gummy molds.
Chill for a few hours, until gummies are firm to the touch and easily pop out of the molds.
Remove gummies from molds and enjoy! Gummies can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.
