  • Step 1

    Take about 2 bags of gummy bears and store empty them into a bowl.

  • Step 2

    Take about a cup of vodka and pore it onto the gummy bears. Make sure the alcohol is about the same level as the gummy bears.
    I didn't use vodka. I love sake so I used a sweet kind of desert wine. Use any kind of boos you want (i don't know about carbonated alcoholic drinks though).

  • Step 3

    cover bowl with plastic wrap or a top and let sit for at least 24 hours. they gummy bears should swell.

  • Step 4

    Serve and enjoy!

Hey, I just tried this on some softer gummies. like actual gummie bears and some fruit gummies as the wine gummies I commented about below are much chewier and they get mushy and take a lot longer. But the soft gummies did not mush at all and only took 3 days to perfection. I personally fill the vodka to level with the gummies so they get all swollen and nice and juicy.

***UPDATE!*** I SOOOO learned a secret! As you can see further down in the field I made these and commented on them well, ACCIDENTALLY I learned some helpful info that will answer many of the questions here in the comments!

If I may The _Sweets share my experience over the past week with your little concoction here.

I made my batch on June 5 using Wine Gummies here in Holland and Vodka. I think about any gummi candy will do well from reading your comments you have here.

We tried the 24 hour idea but of course even though it tasted nice it was mushy on the outside and a bit hard in the center. We didn't eat all of them so we tried them in the fridge and left them out over the next couple days tasting them in between. Still the same result, tasty, mushy, slowly softening in the center and the Vodka kinda gelled around them.

Well we put them back in the fridge and actually forgot about them till tonight June 12 (7 days later). OMGosh! They were SO good! Other than the gelled Vodka surrounding them they had swollen up twice their size and were mellowed out almost to the ORIGINAL consistency of the normal gummi candy meaning they were not mushy at all anymore and tasted delicious! The bite from the Vodka had sweetened and it left a nice pleasant taste and no mush, no hard center, just WOW.

So I would say it is def safe to say you can store them in your fridge for at least a week or two and IF you can wait a whole week (make them a week ahead of time) then the rewards are so worth it!

Thank you for such an ingenious idea! I hope this is helpful and HAVE WILLPOWER everyone! Make em, put them in the fridge and wait a full week.. YUM YUM
(sorry so long, I HAD 2 share!)

i lovee this idea!!!
its much sweeter then just drinking alkohol, especially since i always used to mix my vodka with fanta and cola and my whiskey whith cola and bacardi with energy drinks and so on, so they taste a bit sweeter. and i cant stand the thought of drinking so much alkohol.especially since theatre weekend Tongue

anyways. i really wanna make some. and put them in a jar as a gift. i always put gifts in jars Tongue and then eat them all alone....
just have to hack someone before to buy some buzz fur me ;D

greatt ideaaa!

I tried it, and it worked out well, in my opinion.
It sucks hat they got mushy on the outside, while still being what they were before, on the inside. When i put them into the fridge, would that help making them less mushy??
But still, it tastes great, and i'm gonna keep them for a festival i have this weekend.
Gonna be so much fun. Thanks for putting this up! ;x
