Sugar Free Suckers
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup birch xylitol
- 1/3 cup strong brewed tea of your choice cherry/lemon/raspberry/blueberry/chocolate

- 2 drops Natural Food coloring optional
- 1 teaspoon citric acid optional (sour taste)
Instructions
- Place the xylitol and strong brewed tea in a medium sized saucepan over high heat. Bring to 300 degrees. If you get too hot, the xylitol will burn.
- Remove from heat. Stir in extracts, natural food coloring and citric acid (depending on how sour you like you suckers).
- Pour the hot liquid into candy and sucker molds. If making suckers, place a stick in the middle of the mold, then top with a little more hot liquid.
- Place in fridge to set up fast. Let cool before consuming. It is best to let them setup over night.
