7UP Mixers. Drunken Gummies (Vodka-Infused Gummi Bears) This Instructable takes a bit more than a week to complete, but the end result is certainly worth it! You will need: - 1 1/2 cups of vodka (can use more or less if desired)- 1 tub of gummi bear candies, plastic with lid (about 1kg. Tub found at Wal-mart)- 1 can of frozen juice concentrate, any flavour desired (I used fruit punch.) You can keep the juice frozen for now, as you will not need it for a few days. - First step is to open the lid of your gummi bears and pour in the vodka. The amount and brand is at your discretion, though I have found 1.5 cups of Smirnoff vodka to be the best.

I have tried this with raspberry vodka as well, with pleasurable results. . - Give your newly introduced gummi-bears and vodka a stir, and replace the lid. . - Let this sit for five days, stirring a couple of times each day.
