I have been a long time fan of Bragg products and especially their famous Apple Cider Vinegar. They recently asked me to create a Valentine's Day themed video for them featuring their ACV as a gummy! It was a wonderful creative challenge that I was really excited to try. See the full recipe for these apple cider vinegar gummies below!
Is it difficult to make apple cider vinegar gummies?
Making apple cider vinegar gummies is very easy. If you have ever made jello, you can make these gummies. There are only 4 ingredients in this recipe: strawberries, apple cider vinegar, honey, and gelatin. For the gelatin, you can use vegan gelatin if you wish or you can use traditional gelatin. I really liked the great red color I got from using strawberries so I would encourage you to do the same thing. If you are interested in using other fruits you could try using blueberries as well.
What is the difference between vegan gelatin and regular gelatin?
As I said above you can use either vegan gelatin or regular gelatin in this apple cider vinegar gummies recipe. The main difference is that vegan gelatin is not made from any animal source. Agar Agar Powder is a popular choice among vegans because it is 100% vegetable-based.
What other shapes can you make these gummies into?
I used a heart-shaped mold for these gummies because I was looking to tie them into the Valentine's Day theme. There are many different kinds of molds on the internet that are specifically created for chocolate but you can use them for gummies as well. Most importantly, look for silicone molds. They are easy to work with and allow you to pop out the gummies very easily when they are finished solidifying.

Author: Justin Coit
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup purreed strawberries
- ⅓ cup Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar
- 2 tbsp honey
- 4 tbsp gelatin unflavored (vegan or non-vegan)
Instructions
Puree fresh strawberries in blender. If needed, you can add a little water to dilute the mixture if it's too thick.
Heat a small saucepan over medium low heat and combine strawberry puree, apple cider vinegar and honey while stirring with a whisk.
Pour in gelatin gradually while constantly stirring to avoid any clumps.
Once gelatin is combined and melted, remove from heat.
Pour mixture into silicone mold (using a syringe is extremely helpful with this part), then place the mold into the fridge for 10 minutes and then 5 minutes in the freezer.
Store gummies in fridge in an airtight container.

Is serving size one a day?Reply

Hello Michele- I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist so I can't advise on how many to eat in a day. There is about 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar in each gummy. On Bragg's website (https://www.bragg.com/products/organic-apple-cider-vinegar) the serving size of their apple cider vinegar is 2 tsp so you could eat two gummies per day if you want to. THanks

Hello Wendy-
Here is a link to a similar mold compared to the one I bought: https://www.amazon.com/Mrs-Andersons-Baking-43749-European-Grade/dp/B00UZ9DJ40/ref=sr_1_29?dchild=1&keywords=heart+mold&qid=1591153207&sr=8-29This amount of gummies made 30 hearts for me (two batches approximately). I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist so I can't advise on how many to eat in a day. There is about 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar in each gummy. On Bragg's website (https://www.bragg.com/products/organic-apple-cider-vinegar) the serving size of their apple cider vinegar is 2 tsp so you could eat two gummies per day if you want to. Thanks

For the puréed strawberries, do you strain it at all? Or just use it with seeds and all? Just cut off the top and purée.

Hi Kate- no need to strain. Just as you said- cut off the stem and purée.

Hi- if you keep them refrigerated they will last for a week conservatively. Thanks!

I am going to try these but definitely won’t be adding the honey (raw) till it is nearly cooled down so as not to destroy the good properties in it. Hope it works

Can't have strawberries. Is there another fruit that will work just as well?
Reply
- Justin Coit says
Hello Angela- I’m sorry to hear that you can’t have strawberries. Any other typical berry will work well, such as: blueberries or blackberries. Hope this helps!

I want to take these gummies to Mexico with us. Will they melt on the long flight?
Reply
- Justin Coit says
Hi- so glad to hear that you like this recipe! You should be ok on your flight, just make sure that the gummies are stored in a place that is out of direct sunlight. Have fun in Mexico!

Hi! Some says you’re not supposed to make the mixture reach simmering/ boiling point for it kills the bacteria in the ACV so i’m kinda confused now 🙁

HI Jenny- That's a good point. The trouble is that to get the gelatin to mix and set correctly you need to raise the temperature. Not sure if there is a work around for this. Have you found one? Thank you!

Just made this recipe and love it. Will be making it regularly now as it is cheaper than store bought and better for you. Not to mention they are delicious.I used blackberries as strawberries didn't look great in the store but blackberries have lots of seeds. After processing the berries I strained the puree in cheesecloth and happy I did. I think it would be best to strain any berries of their seeds.
