Pineapple Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies
Try making these apple cider vinegar gummies for a healthy (and cute!) Valentine’s Day Gift. It’s very important to cook the pineapple thoroughly before adding gelatin otherwise they will not set. This is because pineapples contain an enzyme that breaks down protein, and this enzyme is destroyed by heat.
Ingredients
½ pineapple, peeled and chopped (we love Dole)- ½ cup mint leaves (we love Superb Herb)
- ⅓ cup Chantal Organics Creamed Honey
- ¼ cup Chantal Organics Apple Cider Vinegar
- ½ cup water
- 3 tbsp gelatin powder
instructions

Step 1.
Blend pineapple and mint until smooth. Strain and add the liquid to a small saucepan.
-
Step 2.
Simmer the pineapple juice over low heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally and removing scum.
-
Step 3.
Put water and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Add gelatin and whisk vigorously so it doesn’t clump. Let bloom then add to the saucepan. Add honey then stir and simmer the mixture for a few minutes until fully dissolved, then pour into oiled silicon moulds.

Step 4.
Let set in the fridge then pop the gummies out and enjoy!

Pineapples contain an enzyme that breaks down protein. The enzyme is destroyed by heat, so it is important to cook the pineapple thoroughly before adding gelatin.
