Description
These chewy dill pickle gummy worms are tangy, quirky, and surprisingly addictive. A fun twist on classic gummies for adventurous snack lovers.
Ingredients
- 1 cup dill pickle juice (from the jar)
- 3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
- 1 tablespoon sugar or honey (optional, for balance)
- A few drops of green or yellow food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Pour the dill pickle juice into a small saucepan. Sprinkle the gelatin over the juice and let it bloom for 3–5 minutes.
- Place the saucepan over low heat, stirring until the gelatin fully dissolves. Add sugar or honey if using, and stir until combined.
- Add food coloring if desired, then carefully pour the mixture into gummy worm molds or an ice cube tray.
- Refrigerate for 2–3 hours, or until the gummies are firm. Remove from molds and enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
For a spicier twist, use hot pickle brine or add a pinch of cayenne. Store gummies in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Best enjoyed within 3 days for peak texture.
