Recipe: Cannabis berry gummies

If you happen to have or know how to make cannabis tinctures and/or oil, you can turn almost any staple food into a cannabis-based edible. Of all the foods I've tried, my favorites are gummies and chocolate.
Luís Narciso recipe*
For starters, the gummy bears are small and easy to eat, they don't get dirty and you can prepare them with countless flavors. And since they're made with cannabis oil, you can adjust the potency to your needs: high, delicate, subtle, or anything in between.
INGREDIENTS:
50 ml of water
200 ml red fruit juice to taste, no added sugar
50 ml apple concentrate
50 ml of rice jelly
2 tablespoons of agar in powder
1 tablespoon of cornstarch
Which cannabis extract to use?
Cannabis gummies are made with cannabis oil. This results in high levels of potency without much of the strong “herb flavor” that usually accompanies food. However, the extract you start with will further increase or decrease the “undesirable” “green” taste. There are two main options when it comes to your initial statement.
– Starting with dye (good method)
It requires tincture, which is easier to make than oil. However, gummies made with this method will taste more “green”. In addition, you will still have to turn the tincture into oil. The oil also comes from a tincture, but the way it is made makes all the difference.
– Starting with cannabis oil (best method)
Well-made cannabis oil contains very little green matter, so the taste is much more pleasant. If you have cannabis, time and patience, I recommend making gummies with pure cannabis oil.
Preparation:
Mix the water well with the agar and the starch in a glass. Reserve.
if you use dye, use 25-50ml for this proportion and reduce the molasses in a heavy-bottomed pan over low heat. Then add the juice with the sweeteners and bring to a boil for another 6 minutes on low heat.
Remove from the heat, add the mixture of agar and starch and bring to a boil over low heat for a further 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
if you use oil, use 7 to 14 drops. Add them at first too, but then boil together with the juice and sweeteners for 6 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the mixture of agar and starch and bring to a boil over low heat for a further 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
Pour into the molds on a stable base to put in the fridge.
Unmold after 2 hours. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a month.
