What was really in that Gummiberry Juice?


Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears was a cartoon that aired during the late 80's and early 90's. The Gummi Bears got special power from drinking Gummiberry Juice. They would bounce high and run fast. It is said that you make it  by adding six handfuls of red berries, then four orange berries, three purple berries, four blue berries, three green berries and one yellow berry. The recipe ends with the 3-step-stir: first stir slow to the right, then slow to the left, then tap the pot to banish the bubbles. Let's get serious. A complicated recipe that is made in the woods? Sounds like Cartoon Moonshine to me. Are we suppose to believe that there wasn't a secret ingredient in this drink? What a great thing to teach kids. Drink this and you will be bouncing off the walls for hours. Thanks Disney, you made me an addict once again.
