Ingredients
  

Main Recipe
  • 1 cup (240ml) Blanco Tequila Clear tequila for translucency
  • 5 envelopes (100g) Unflavored Gelatin Provides firm and chewy texture
  • 1.5 cups (350ml) Cold Water To bloom the gelatin
  • 0.5 cup (100g) Granulated Sugar For internal sweetness
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) Light Corn Syrup For shine and texture
  • 2 drops Purple and Blue Food Coloring Gel based preferred
  • 1 cup (200g) Granulated Sugar For exterior coating
  • 1 tbsp (5g) Edible Silver Glitter Food grade fine glitter

Equipment

  • 1 Tall silicone molds or 8x8 pan Used for shaping the wands.
  • 12 Wooden skewer sticks Thin skewers for holding the gummies.
  • 1 Heavy-bottomed saucepan To melt the gelatin base evenly.

Method
 

Prepare the Gummy Base
  1. Combine cold water and corn syrup in a saucepan; sprinkle gelatin over the top and let sit for 10 minutes until it looks like thick slush.
  2. Heat on low-medium, stirring constantly until the mixture is crystal clear and sugar is dissolved. Do not boil.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the blanco tequila and the first 1/2 cup of sugar until fully incorporated.
Color and Set
  1. Divide the mixture into two bowls. Tint one deep cosmic purple and the other vibrant blue.
  2. Pour the purple half-way into molds. Chill for 15-20 minutes until tacky, then pour the blue on top for a gradient effect.
  3. Chill in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours or until very firm to the touch.
Assembly
  1. Unmold the wands and carefully thread a wooden skewer through the center of each long gummy stick.
  2. Roll the wands in a mixture of sugar and silver glitter until heavily encrusted.
