Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup birch xylitol
  • 1/3 cup strong brewed tea of your choice cherry/lemon/raspberry/blueberry/chocolate
  • 2 teaspoons cherry extract or cherry/strawberry/banana/lemon/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.
