Ingredients

Tart Cherry Juice

Naturally rich in melatonin and antioxidants, tart cherry juice helps support restful sleep, muscle recovery, and overall wellness.

Goose Goods Gelatin

A high-quality, grass-fed protein source that supports gut health, skin elasticity, hair strength, and joint function—all while giving these gummies their signature chewy texture.

Glycine (Optional)

This amino acid plays a key role in promoting relaxation, cognitive function, and collagen production, making these gummies a powerhouse for both beauty and sleep.

 

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1 – Bloom the Gelatin

Pour 1 cup of tart cherry juice into a glass dish. Sprinkle the Goose Goods Gelatin evenly over the top and let it sit for a minute to “bloom.” This allows the gelatin to absorb the liquid and dissolve more smoothly. Stir well with a fork to break up any clumps.

Step 2 – Heat the Juice

In a small pot over low heat, warm the remaining 1 cup of tart cherry juice until steaming but not boiling.

Step 3 – Mix & Dissolve

Slowly pour the warm juice over the bloomed gelatin mixture, stirring continuously with a fork until everything is fully combined and smooth. Add the glycine and mix until dissolved.

Step 4 – Set & Chill

Let the mixture cool slightly, then cover and transfer to the fridge. Allow it to set for at least 3-4 hours until fully solidified.

Step 5 – Cut & Enjoy!

Once set, cut the gummies into squares and enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
