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.

Ingredients
- 2/3 cup purreed strawberries
- 1/3 cup Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar

- Pour in gelatin gradually while constantly stirring to avoid any clumps.
- Once gelatin is combined and melted, remove from heat.

Is serving size one a day?
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
what size molds? how many is this supposed to make? how many are you supposed to eat a day?
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=8-29
This 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.

How long do they last in the fridge?
To be safe I would say 3-4 days at the most.
Did you bloom the gelatin?
Hi Margaret- I did not but I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt to bloom it before you heat it. Thanks!
