Why Beef Gelatin for Tart Cherry Gummies
It is widely known that collagen plays a major role in the building of healthy skin, nails, muscles, joints and other body tissues in both humans and animals.
It is also well known that gelatin is a form of collagen that has been broken down. This process of breaking down may result in easier digestion. Using gelatin in this recipe may allow for easier absorption of the nutrients included in the gelatin (protein and amino acids) and other ingredients (in this case, tart cherry juice!)
Ingredients for Tart Cherry Juice Gummies
¼ Beef gelatin (be sure to use beef gelatin and not collagen peptides, it’ll make a big difference!)
1 ½ cups tart cherry juice

A saucepan
An Air tight container
Directions
In a saucepan add your tart cherry juice and heat until you start to see steam.
When your tart cherry juice is heated, sprinkle gelatin evenly on the warm cherry juice and whisk until dissolved and smooth.
Once the gelatin is well incorporated, transfer to a glass baking dish or desired silicone mold.
Transfer to the refrigerator to cool until firm (about 1-2 hours).
Once firm, remove from the mold or cut into square pieces. Store in an airtight container at the back of your refrigerator for up to 2-3 weeks.
