Spiked Aperol Spritz Gummies
(20 mg THC each · 30 gummies · 600 mg total batch)
Bubbly orange-aperitif gummies with bright bitter-sweet prosecco vibe – chewy, effervescent, Italian sunset in candy form. Tastes like the perfect spritz, zero weed flavor.
Decarboxylation
3.0 g flower @ 22–25 % THC (or 1.5 g good kief)
240 °F for 40 minutes in sealed mason jar → ~600 mg usable THC
Infusion
¾ cup (180 ml) Aperol + ½ tsp liquid sunflower lecithin
Warm to 170 °F → add decarbed material → sous-vide 185 °F for 2 hours
Strain hard → crystal-clear 600 mg THC Aperol
Gummy Base
All 600 mg THC Aperol
1 cup (240 ml) fresh orange juice
½ cup (120 ml) prosecco or dry sparkling wine (add last for fizz)
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
¼ cup (80 g) light corn syrup
4 tbsp powdered gelatin (or 25 g agar for vegan)
Pinch fine salt
Optional: citric acid + orange zest coat for extra spritz tang
Steps
1. Bloom gelatin in ½ cup cold orange juice for 10 minutes.
2. Warm THC Aperol + remaining orange juice + sugar + corn syrup + salt to 160 °F → whisk in bloomed gelatin until dissolved.
3. Cool slightly → gently fold in prosecco last (preserves bubbles).
4. Pour into 10–15 ml molds (30 cavities) → tap hard to release bubbles → chill 1 hour → unmold.
5. Optional coat: toss in sugar mixed with citric acid and fine orange zest for fizzy rim effect.
Storage
