Homemade Raspberry Lemonade Gummies

These delicious homemade raspberry lemonade gummies are a healthier, more natural option than sugar loaded store bought ones! Perfect for the whole family!Berry season is over in our backyard for another year, but I still have freezer bags full of berries from our garden. Our raspberry bush grew like a monster this year! We had so many raspberries at a time. It was delicious, but pretty overwhelming. There’s only so much jam I can make, eat, and give away, so I started looking for homemade gummy recipes to clear some room in my freezer.

Gummies are one of my favorite candies, but store bought gummies tend to be loaded with sugar and artificial flavors. I’ve recently made some healthier changes to my diet and lifestyle, so it’s nice to find healthier, homemade alternatives that are better for me. Especially when it comes to sweet treats!

These delicious homemade raspberry lemonade gummies are a healthier, more natural option than sugar loaded store bought ones! Perfect for the whole family!During my search for homemade gummy recipes, I found a recipe that used lemon juice in it.  That’s when I decided that raspberry lemonade flavored gummies would make a pretty delicious Summer snack!  It’s better if you use lemonade that isn’t loaded with sugar.  We want to keep this fruity snack as healthy as possible!  I suggest purchasing a mini silicone mold to make your gummies, but you could also use a shallow baking sheet.  After your gummies have set, turn them out onto a cutting board and cut them into bite-size squares.
