Ingredients To Gather

• 1 cup wine
• 4 Tbsp gelatin (I always use this kind)
• 1/2 tsp stevia (optional)
• 2 -4 Tbsp maple syrup (I always use Grade B, but any kind will work).

You can double or triple this–it works just the same!

• In a saucepan, warm the wine on low heat. I put a thermometer in it and made sure it didn’t go much above 90 degrees.
• Wine boils at 159 degrees F, and so I definitely wanted to keep it well below that so the alcohol wouldn’t burn off.
• Add the gelatin one Tbsp at a time and stir very well before adding more.
• I stirred the gelatin/wine with a whisk and the white wine version got very frothy. This is ok! It still works and the froth gels too–but if you want your gummies not to have a little froth on the bottom, you can scoop it off.
• After the gelatin has completely dissolved, add the other ingredients. Taste the mixture after adding each one—you’ll have to use your taste buds as a gauge for how much sweetener to add! Keep in mind that the more sweetener you add, the less you’ll taste the flavor of the wine!
• Once your mixture is ready, either use a spoon to fill a mold or dump the whole batch into a pan (for square cut gummies). I’ve done it both ways—and although the hearts are pretty, I’ll make the square ones if they’re just for me (easier).
• Put them in the fridge to set. They’ll be the texture of Jello jigglers pretty quickly–go ahead and eat them this way if you want to. But I recommend waiting! They get better! In fact, I recommend that you let them chill for at least 2-3 hours. They really do become the texture of gummy bears. I keep them in the fridge, but you don’t have to if you want to pack them up and take them to a party. They won’t un-gel.

The Ultimate Recipe For Adults

I love wine and making this! Sometimes after parties or small gatherings that left over wine you leave in the fridge can get forgotten so what I do is I just make these little Jell-o like shots. You can also be fancy-smancy and put a little whipped cram on top with some garnish if you wanted to present it as a dessert.
