Kefir Gummie Bears

I used unsweetened cranberry juice in mine (you know that's sour!), but with only three Tablespoons of honey, and the kefir which isn't sweet, the kids loved them!
kefir Gummy Snacks
1 1/14 cup water kefir
1 cup fruit juice or puree
2-3 T. raw honey
6 T. plain gelatin (I use beef gelatin)  -
NOTE-  I adapted this and used agar following the package directions- let cool before adding kefir water
Heat fruit juice/puree in a sauce pan with the gelatin until the gelatin is dissolved. Let cool until still warm, but no longer hot. If it's hot, it kills the good stuff in the kefir, if it's room temp. it solidifies.
Stir in the honey and kefir. Pour into molds or an 8x8 pan. Don't worry about greasing or lining the pan, they'll come out when they're cold.
Turns out, they can eaten  faster than I can pop them out, and I can't actually “pop” them out because the molds are too small and detailed. From here on out, we're using a plain old square pan. smile
Refrigerate for half an hour or so, cut, and dump out of mold. Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.
Enjoy!
