Ingredients
1 cup apple juice

1 package (3 oz) gelatin (any flavor)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup moonshine or apple pie liquor
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Cooking spray
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the apple juice, apple cider, and water. Heat over medium heat until warm, but not boiling.
- Whisk in the gelatin until fully dissolved, followed by the granulated sugar. Continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and the sugar has dissolved.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the moonshine, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
- Lightly spray a gummy bear mold or a silicone mold of your choice with cooking spray for easy removal.
- Pour the mixture into the molds, filling each cavity evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the gummies are set and firm to the touch.
- Once set, carefully remove the gummies from the molds. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- Substitute apple juice with pear juice or add lemon juice for a tart twist.
- Add ground cloves or allspice for richer fall flavor.
- Use bourbon, spiced rum, or flavored vodka instead of moonshine for variety.
- Use sugar substitutes for a lower sugar version.
- Omit alcohol and add extra apple juice or cider for a kid-friendly version.
- Store gummies in airtight container in refrigerator up to 2 weeks; do not freeze.
- Lightly spray molds to prevent sticking and ease removal.
- Silicone molds work best for easy removal and fun shapes.
- Alcohol remains in gummies; consume responsibly and keep away from children.
