Best Jelly Belly Combination Recipes You Didn’t Know About

We all remember the jelly bean flavor recipes as kids. For me, my greatest memory was forcing my younger sister to taste test combinations before they were fit for my taste buds. We would spend hours searching for the perfect recipe; mine was two Orange Sherbets and one French Vanilla. My sister’s favorite flavor was Dr. Pepper, which as you know is a dark brown, almost black jelly bean.  On occasion I would slip a licorice jelly bean (which is the grenade of all Jelly Belly Jelly Beans) in the place of a Dr. Pepper and just watch as her face changes from curious to “WHAT THE #*(@#”. Anyways, the point of that story is to tell you that we have extensive knowledge of Jelly Belly flavor recipes, what works and what doesn’t. Here are our top flavor combination's that you didn’t know about. 2 Peach + 1 Sizzling Cinnamon=Sizzling Peach 2 Pomegranate + 1 Sunkist Lemon+ 2 Blueberry=Sugar Detox 2 Chili Mango +1  Sizzling Cinnamon+ 1 Dr. Pepper=Tamarind 2 Sunkist Lemon + 2 Coconut =Coconut Lemon Bars 1 Margarita + 1 Lemon Drop + 1 Pina Colada + 1 Island Punch =Hangover I wouldn't consider myself a top chef with flavor recipes, but these combos are pretty tasty!
