Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup gummy bears (Haribo classic recommended)
  • 1 cup lemon-lime soda (Sprite or 7UP suggested)
  • 1 cup fruit juice (mango juice is a favorite, alternatives: cranberry juice, pineapple juice, blue raspberry punch)
  • ½ cup club soda or sparkling water
  • Ice cubes (optional)

Optional Garnishes

  • Extra gummy bears on skewers
  • Fresh fruit slices (orange, lime, or lemon)
  • Sugar for glass rims
  • Lemon juice (for rimming glasses)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glasses: Add about ¼ cup gummy bears to the bottom of each tall glass. If desired, dip the rim of the glass in lemon juice and then into sugar to create a sparkling rim.
  2. Mix the Base: In a large cup or small pitcher, combine the fruit juice and lemon-lime soda. Stir in the club soda or sparkling water to add extra fizz and balance the sweetness.
  3. Pour and Watch the Magic Happen: Pour the fizzy juice mixture over the gummy bears in each glass. Observe as the gummy bears float and swirl, absorbing the flavors of the drink.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Garnish with additional gummy bears on skewers or floating on top. Serve the drink with a straw and enjoy the refreshing, bubbly, fruity candy concoction.

Notes

  • Haribo gummy bears hold up best in liquid without getting too soft too quickly.
  • For a sweeter drink, use Sprite; for a lighter, less sweet fizz, try Perrier Lemon Sparkling Water.
  • Prepare the juice and soda mixture ahead of time and refrigerate. Add gummy bears just before serving to prevent them from dissolving too fast.
  • To serve a large crowd, triple the recipe and use a drink dispenser. Let guests add gummy bears from bowls on their own.
