What is the best way to soak gummy bears in Ciroc vodka?

To soak gummy bears in Ciroc vodka, you can follow these general steps and tips from various sources:

Ingredients and Equipment

• 1 cup (or approximately 200g) of gummy bears. Haribo Gold Bears are highly recommended as they hold their shape well during the soaking process4.
• 150-200 ml (2/3 Cup to 3/4 + 1/8 Cup) of Ciroc vodka.
• A glass container, preferably a shallow one with a cover, such as a Pyrex pan14.

Instructions

Method 1: Short Soaking Time

• Place the gummy bears in a bowl or shallow container.
• Pour enough Ciroc vodka over the gummy bears to just cover them.
• Leave the mixture uncovered at room temperature for 7-8 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent the gummy bears from sticking together24.

Method 2: Long Soaking Time

• Place the gummy bears in a glass container and pour the Ciroc vodka over them until the gummy bears are covered.
• Cover the container and refrigerate for 3-5 days, stirring once or twice daily. This method allows for a more thorough infusion of the vodka13.

Tips

• Use a Glass Container: Avoid using plastic containers as they can affect the texture of the gummy bears14.
• Stir Regularly: Stir the gummy bears daily if using the longer soaking method, or occasionally if using the shorter method, to prevent them from clumping together124.
• Serve with Care: Serve the vodka-soaked gummy bears with toothpicks or cocktail sticks to make them easier to handle, as they can be quite slippery14.
• Adjust Soaking Time: If you prefer a milder version, you can reduce the soaking time. Conversely, if you want a stronger version, you can extend the soaking time4.

By following these steps and tips, you can create vodka-infused gummy bears using Ciroc vodka that are both delicious and potent. Always consume responsibly.
