Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Silicone gummy mold (bear or ring, ~2ml cavities)
  • Dropper or squeeze bottle
  • Whisk

Ingredients

  • berry-flavored gelatin (e.g., strawberry or mixed berry)3 oz (85g)
  • unflavored gelatin powder (about 14g total)2 packets
  • cold water½ cup (120ml)
  • berry juice (tart cherry, pomegranate, or grape)½ cup (120ml)

    Adds real fruit flavor

  • MCT tincture or cannabis coconut oil, warmed to liquid3 tbsp (45ml)
  • sunflower lecithin1 tsp

    Helps oil emulsify into the mixture

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine cold water and all gelatin in a small saucepan. Let bloom (sit undisturbed) for 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add berry juice and heat over low heat, stirring constantly until all gelatin dissolves completely — about 3 minutes. Do not boil.

  3. 3

    Remove from heat. Allow to cool to 140°F (just above body temperature). Adding tincture to boiling liquid can degrade THC.

  4. 4

    Whisk in sunflower lecithin, then slowly whisk in the cannabis oil until fully incorporated and no oil pools are visible.

  5. 5

    Transfer to a squeeze bottle or use a dropper to fill mold cavities. Work quickly — the mixture begins to set as it cools.

  6. 6

    Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until fully firm. Pop out of molds and transfer to an airtight container.

Notes & Storage

  • Lecithin is not optional for oil-based tinctures — without it, the oil will separate and potency will be uneven.
  • Store refrigerated for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Label clearly with potency per gummy and keep away from children.
  • For a firmer texture, add an extra ½ packet of unflavored gelatin.

Edibles take 30–120 minutes to take effect. Label all infused food clearly and store away from children. Not medical advice.
