There are a lot of CBD gummies and edibles on the market. But, if you’re like me and are very picky about the ingredients you put in your body, then you might want to try making your own.

Also, it’s more affordable and budget-friendly when you make them at home.

What are CBD Gummies?

CBD, the shortened name for Cannibidiol, is an active ingredient of the hemp plant. CBD Gummies are simply gummy treats infused with CBD oil.

The Harvard Health blog states that CBD has promising research supporting its use in treating epilepsy, anxiety, insomnia, and some forms of chronic pain. However, more research is needed and there can be some side effects associated with ingesting CBD.

As with any supplement, it’s important that you talk to your doctor to make sure CBD is right for you. And, it’s also important that you do your own research to make sure that CBD is legal where you live.

Recipe Instructions

Step One

To make the gummies, you’ll heat the juice in a saucepan just to a very light simmer. You can use whatever type of fruit juice you like. To avoid too much sugar, use 100% fruit juice like pomegranate juice.

Step Two

Next, whisk in the gelatin and the honey, stirring for about a minute until the ingredients are combined. If you want to make a vegan version, see my recipe for Vegan Gummies.

As always, please do see the recipe card at the end of this post for the exact ingredients and measurements.

Step Three

Turn off the heat and add two milliliters of CBD oil. Give the mixture one final whisk.

Step Four

The last step is to pour the mixture into your mold. You can do this without spilling by transferring the mixture into a small pitcher.

FAQs

How many gummies should I take?

It’s a very individual decision to determine how many gummies you should take. Please consult your healthcare provider regarding the best CBD dosage for you.

How much CBD is in each gummy?

Two mL or two droppers as recommended of the Medterra 3,000mg tincture includes 200mg of CBD. So, each serving of two gummies will provide about 13 mg or CBD. To make the gummies more potent, you can add up to 4 ml of CBD oil (or 4 droppers-full of the Medterra 3000 mg bottle).

What do CBD gummies taste like?

This recipe is sweet with a nice soft texture. These homemade CBD gummies taste a bit like candy gummy bears.

What is gelatin?

Gelatin is a powder that gives the gummies their texture. Gelatin is what is used to make Jello. Grass-fed gelatin is also a source of protein and collagen and has its own health benefits. Learn more about the benefits of collagen protein.
