Thieves and Honey Lemon Tea Gummies

Thieves and Honey Lemon Tea Gummies with Thieves and lemon essential oil

What happens when you run out of your Thieves Hard Lozenges and you (and the whole family) are sick? Thieves tea with lemon and honey is great, but I need something on the go. While making a batch of Ningxia red, elderberry syrup & kombucha gummies (yes, that is all one gummy - recipe coming soon), I had an idea. I whipped up a batch of these gummies using tea, honey, thieves essential oil, lemon essential oil and gelatin. It was so yummy, I just made a second batch.

You will need:

  • 3oz brewed tea - I used Teavana Maharaja Chai {Amazon link}
  • 2oz raw local honey (Texas) {Amazon link}
  • 3 tsp unflavored gelatin {Amazon link}
  • 5 drops Thieves and 2 drops lemon essential oil by Young Living
  • Robot silicone mold {Amazon link}
  • or Dinosaur silicone mold {Amazon link}

Instructions

Put the brewed tea in a saucepan and turn the heat on medium. Whisk in the gelatin for about a minute. Add in the honey and whisk until melted and combined. Take off heat and add essential oils and whisk.

Place your silicone mold onto a flat plate or cookie sheet. Fill the mold with your mixture. This amount will fill one full robot or dinosaur mold with about 1 tablespoon left.

Place cookie sheet/plate with silicone mold into the refrigerator for about an hour. Pop gummies out of the molds and store in a container in the refrigerator.

If you don't have a silicone mold, pour into a pan, let cool, then cut into pieces with a knife. If you want them not as firm and aren't using a mold, then 2.25 tsp of gelatin is plenty enough.

  1. Hi, I stumbled upon your blog and am intrigued by this recipe. Can a child of 5 years old eat this gummy or is this for adults only because it has tea and thieves in it.
    Thanks! :)
