Start by measuring out all of your ingredients. You’ll want to use 100% pure tart cherry juice to get the most sleep-promoting benefits. If you don’t have a gummy mold, you can use an ice cube tray or any small container.

In a small saucepan, gently heat the tart cherry juice over medium heat until it starts to warm up. Don’t let it boil; you just want it warm enough to dissolve the gelatin.

Slowly sprinkle the gelatin over the warm tart cherry juice while stirring continuously. This will help prevent lumps from forming. Stir until the gelatin has fully dissolved.

Magnesium is a mineral that plays a vital role in relaxation and sleep regulation. Magnesium glycinate is a highly bioavailable form of magnesium that is gentle on the stomach and ideal for children. Add 1 tablespoon of magnesium glycinate to the mixture and stir well until dissolved. Magnesium helps support muscle relaxation and calm the nervous system, making it an excellent addition to sleep gummies.

Raw honey not only sweetens the gummies naturally, but it also provides antibacterial properties and can promote relaxation. Stir in the honey until well combined. Honey also has the added benefit of helping to regulate blood sugar levels, which can help your child maintain steady energy levels throughout the night.

Carefully pour the mixture into your silicone gummy molds. If you don’t have molds, you can also pour the mixture into an ice cube tray and cut the gummies into smaller pieces once they set.

Place the filled molds in the refrigerator for about 2 hours or until the gummies have completely set and firmed up.

Once the gummies are set, pop them out of the molds and store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll stay fresh for about one week.
