Instructions:

1. In a small saucepan, whisk coconut milk and agar agar powder over medium heat. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat after boiling for about a minute.

2. Pour a small amount of the mixture into a bowl and add the matcha. Whisk until smooth then add back to the saucepan and whisk to combine.

3. Place molds on a baking tray that will fit into your refrigerator. While the mixture is still hot, but not scalding, use the dropper included in your gummy bear mold to drop the liquid into the little bears until the mold is completely full. Repeat until all molds are filled.
