Welcome to Peace Love Hormones, AKA The Modern Woman's Apothecary!
✨ A delicious, science-backed way to support your immune system—naturally.
Did you know that pregnancy naturally suppresses parts of the immune system to protect the developing baby? While this adaptation is crucial for fetal development, it can also make pregnant women more vulnerable to seasonal bugs and infections.
That’s where these homemade immune-boosting elderberry gummies come in.
Made with fresh lemon juice (vitamin C), ginger (anti-inflammatory and nausea-soothing), and elderberries (rich in immune-modulating flavonoids), these gummies are not only safe for pregnancy, they’re deeply nourishing. The addition of grass-fed gelatin supports gut lining health and provides a satisfying texture, while raw honey adds natural antimicrobial properties and a touch of sweetness.
Unlike store-bought options filled with questionable additives, these gummies are free from synthetic preservatives, dyes, and artificial sweeteners, because your body (and baby!) deserve the cleanest support possible.
Whether you’re navigating the first trimester or simply want to feel your best this season, these pregnancy-safe elderberry gummies are a gentle, effective way to boost your immunity, soothe digestion, and support your wellness, all in one bite.

Ingredients
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 ½ cups water (for infusion) + ½ cup water (for gelatin bloom)
- 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger (for a stronger kick; reduce to 1½ tsp if sensitive)
- 2 tablespoons dried elderberries
- ¼ cup grass-fed gelatin
- 3 tablespoons raw honey
Directions
Step 1: Bloom the gelatin
In a small bowl, add ½ cup cool water .
Sprinkle ¼ cup gelatin evenly over the top. Stir together.
Let sit for 5–10 minutes to bloom (it will become thick and spongy).
Step 2: Make the elderberry ginger infusion
In a small saucepan, add 1 ½ cups water, 2 tbsp dried elderberries, and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger .
Bring to a gentle simmer (not a hard boil) and cook for 15 minutes.
Remove from heat, then strain through a fine mesh strainer to remove elderberries and ginger pieces.
Step 3: Combine ingredients
Stir in ½ cup fresh lemon juice and 3 tbsp raw honey into the warm (not boiling) infusion.
Whisk until the honey is fully dissolved.
Step 4: Add the gelatin
Gently whisk the bloomed gelatin into the warm liquid until fully melted and smooth.
(Tip: If the liquid has cooled too much, warm it gently on low heat while whisking. Don’t boil, or it will break the gelatin.)
Step 5: Mold and set
- Pour mixture into silicone molds (or a parchment-lined dish if you plan to cut them into squares).
- Refrigerate for 2–3 hours or until firm.
Step 6: Store
Remove from molds and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Shelf life: 7 days refrigerated.
For longer storage, freeze gummies for up to 3 months.
