These Fun Sweet and Sour Vodka Rainbow Rollups are colorful, tangy, and infused with a subtle vodka kick, making them a playful and delicious party snack that’s quick and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

  • Fruit Roll-Ups or Fruit Leather Sheets (wide, plain or lightly sweetened)
  • Sweet and Sour Candy Strips (thin sour belts or strips)
  • Vodka (80 proof, about 2 tablespoons)
  • Granulated Sugar (for dusting)
  • Lemon Juice (1 teaspoon fresh)
  • Water (1 tablespoon)
  • Food Coloring (optional)
  • Non-stick Cooking Spray or Parchment Paper

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Vodka Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons vodka, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon water. Stir gently until blended.
  2. Lay Out the Fruit Leather: Place one fruit roll-up sheet flat on a clean surface lined with parchment paper. Optionally, paint sections with food coloring mixed with a little water and let dry for a few minutes.
  3. Add the Sweet and Sour Candy Strips: Lay 3-4 sour candy strips horizontally across the fruit leather, spacing evenly.
  4. Brush on the Vodka Mixture: Lightly coat the entire fruit leather sheet with the vodka-lemon mixture using a brush or spoon.
  5. Roll Them Up: Starting from one edge, roll the fruit leather tightly over the candy strips. Use parchment paper or plastic wrap to help guide a snug roll without sticking.
  6. Slice the Rolls: Cut the roll into 1-inch bite-sized pinwheels using a sharp knife or scissors.
  7. Dust with Sugar: Lightly sprinkle granulated sugar over the cut rollups to prevent sticking and add sparkle.
  8. Chill Before Serving: Place rollups in an airtight container in the fridge for at least 15 minutes before serving to let flavors meld and firm up.

Notes

Do not oversaturate the fruit leather with vodka mixture to avoid sogginess. Use fresh lemon juice for brightness. Chill rollups before slicing to prevent squishing. Store in airtight container with parchment paper layers to prevent sticking. Can substitute vodka with water or flavored syrup for kid-friendly version. For firmer texture, chill fruit leather sheets before assembling.
