Vodka Pokeballs mix childhood nostalgia with alcohol

What you’ll need: red and white gummy candy, purple gummy candy, vodka (watching Arrested Development won’t hurt).

Cut the red and white candy to seperate the colors. Set the mixed color parts of candy to the side for eating.

Test how well the candies melt down.

Lightly grease the molds to make removal a bit easier.

While melting (about a 110 pieces of candy) add in the vodka.

Heat the candies until melted, but do not boil.

Pour melted candy into the molds, leaving about 2mm of room in the mold. Let the halves chill in the fridge or freezer. Do the same for the red candy.

Save the extra in the fridge for later.

Purple candy will make of the center of the pokeball.

Melt down the purple candy and add a little more vodka.

Add the purple gummy mix over the top of the white and red halves. Put back in the fridge or freezer for about an hour.

The white half should look something like this.

Pop the two halves together and you get this.

Remember that extra white gummy candy you saved, melt that down.

Using a melon baller spoon some white gummy onto the balls. Throw into the fridge or freeze for one final cool down.

…and the finished product!
