Equipment
- 1 small saucepan
- 1 Whisk and spoon
- 1 Silicone gummy molds or a parchment-lined small dish
- 1 Dropper or small measuring spoon (for precision pouring)
- 1 Refrigerator for setting and storage
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Sea buckthorn juice (unsweetened) Rich in vitamin C, carotenoids, and omega-7s
- 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice (or orange juice for a sweeter taste) Vitamin C enhances collagen synthesis. Lemon is more synergistic, orange softens tartness.
- 1 1/2 tbsp Raw honey or maple syrup, to taste Adds mild sweetness, prebiotic benefits, and balances the tartness.
- 2 tbsp Unflavoured gelatin powder This amount creates firm, chewy gummies and provides 15–18 g of collagen per batch.
- 1/4 cup Water
- 1 tsp Marine collagen peptides Bioavailable, hydrolyzed peptides. Ideal to support hair, nails, and skin.
- 1/2 tsp Sea buckthorn seed oil Adds omega-3, omega-6, vitamin E, and sterols — synergistic skin nutrients.
Instructions
- Warm the juice: In a small saucepan, gently warm the water, sea buckthorn juice and lemon juice over low heat. Do not boil — just warm enough to dissolve the gelatin.
- Combine: Add the gelatin to the warm juice and stir until fully dissolved. Remove from heat.
- Add sweetener: Stir in the honey or maple syrup. Taste and adjust as needed.
- Cool and combine: Let the mixture cool to about 45°C (warm to the touch but not hot). Then whisk in the collagen peptides, sea buckthorn seed oil. Stir thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
- Pour and chill: Pour into silicone molds or a small pan lined with parchment. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until fully set.
- Enjoy daily: Pop one or two a day as your beauty-from-within ritual.
- Store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. For longer storage, they can be frozen and defrosted as needed.
