You won’t believe how simple making CBD oil gummies is! We’ll even show you how to make them without the sugar.
CBD is attracting a lot of attention because of its medicinal health advantages. CBD, unlike THC, has no psychotropic qualities; therefore it can be ingested without having any mental consequences.
Gummies are a terrific method for CBD newcomers to get their feet wet. You won’t have to mess with measuring out a certain quantity of drops because each gummy contains a specific dosage. Plus, candies are delicious, which is why they’ve been a popular way to take vitamins for decades.
Gummies can be made without a gummy mold, but they are much easier to produce with one. The silicone molds are our favorites since they make it easy to remove the final gummies. You may use the same semi-sphere round mold you’d use for hot cocoa bombs, or get creative forms like bears, hearts, and stars.
You’ll need a liquid pipette or an eyedropper if your mold doesn’t come with one. These let you precisely pour an exact amount of sticky substance into each mold, avoiding the mess that comes with spooning.
Finally, CBD will be required.
How to make cbd gummies? To prepare these gummies, you can use CBD tincture (produced by soaking cannabis in alcohol or water) or CBD oil (made by infusing cannabis in oil, such as hemp oil). Full-spectrum CBD has more health advantages, but it is more expensive than broad-spectrum or isolates CBD.
Gummy CBD Oil Recipe
The following recipe is taken from The Essential Guide to CBD. In this brand-new resource, you’ll learn how to properly produce your own budget-friendly CBD products and edibles. Now is the time to get your copy.
24 large or 48 medium-sized gummies (depending on the mold used)
Ingredients
- 1 quart of water
- 1/4 cup dried hibiscus flowers or 6 tea bags of hibiscus
- 3 tbsp. dried fruit powder (such as raspberry or strawberry)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar, refined
- 1 tbsp. lemon or lime juice
- 4 tbsp gelatin, unflavored
- 24 doses of CBD tincture or oil
Multiply the individual dose by 24 to determine the dosage. You’ll need to perform some arithmetic if you want a precise number of milligrams of CBD for each gummy. By multiplying the target gummy dosage by 24, you’ll receive 10mg gummies from 240mg of CBD.
Directions
To begin, make hibiscus tea.
Bring the water to a boil in a heatproof cup or bowl and pour over the hibiscus flours (or hibiscus tea bags). Allow for 5 minutes of steeping before straining out the blooms. Remove 3/4 cup tea and discard the rest of the liquid.
Step 2: Bring the sticky base to a simmer.
In a small saucepan, combine the 3/4 cup hibiscus tea, dried fruit powder, sugar, and lemon juice. With a whisk, blend the ingredients until they are well incorporated. Bring the mixture to a moderate simmer, stirring occasionally, until it is heated but not boiling.
Slowly pour the gelatin mixture into the pot, stirring constantly to ensure that the entire gelatin is dissolved. Cook over medium-low heat until the gelatin has completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glassy.
Step 3: Add the CBD tincture to the mix.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the CBD tincture. Stir thoroughly until the tincture is evenly distributed.
If the gummy mixture was stirred vigorously during the mixing procedure, it could become foamy. Although the foam does not affect the final flavor, some people dislike its texture, and it prevents the gummies from being clear. Allow the gummy mixture to cool and solidify before reheating it over low heat with little to no stirring to remove the froth. The foam layer will rise to the top and be scooped away with a spoon.
Step 4: Pour the mixture into a sticky mold and set it aside.
Using a rimmed baking sheet, place the gummy mold. Fill the gummy mold gently with the mixture using a small pipette or a spoon. After you remove the liquid from the heat, it will begin to solidify, so work as soon as you can! Large bubbles can be poked out with a toothpick or gently tapped out by tapping the mold against the counter.
Refrigerate the gummies for 2 hours or until firm.
Step 5: Let go of the gummies.
When the gummies are firm, invert the mold or pop the gummies out from the bottom. Allow the gummies to air-dry for about 24 hours on a wire rack in a dry area to make them chewier.
