Aperol Spritz Gummies

Oh my gosh, am I onto something here?!

With summer right around the corner and a few spring Aperols already underway, this is such a fun little twist on the classic Aperol Spritz!

Bring them out at your next BBQ for a bit of fun, enjoy a few pre-gummies before a girl’s night out, or simply make them just because… why not?!

A little taste of Italian summer, with a playful gummy twist.

Ingredients

• 200g fresh orange segments (skin and pith removed)

• 100ml Prosecco

• 65ml Aperol

• 35ml soda water

• 4 tbsp gelatin (I use Nutra Organics Grass Fed Gelatin)

Method – Aldi Thermo Cooker

1. Add the orange segments to the Thermo. Cook on Speed 1, 3 minutes, 100°C.

2. Then pour half of the Prosecco into a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over the top. Allow to bloom.

3. Once the orange has cooked, blend on Speed 6 for 20 seconds until smooth.

4. Add the bloomed gelatin and mix on Speed 1, 2 minutes, 70°C (or until completely dissolved).

5. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then add the remaining Prosecco, Aperol and soda water.

6. Mix on Speed 2 for 15 seconds until combined.

7. Transfer into a jug or small bottle with a pouring nozzle and carefully fill your silicone moulds.

8. Place in the fridge to set. Allow around 1–2 hours, or until firm.

Enjoy your little taste of Italian summer! 🍊
