Atlanta, GA —

A warning to parents: the new teen rage is soaking gummy bears in vodka.

The candy is the latest way kids are smuggling booze under your nose.  YouTube has over 80 videos on how to make them.

Police and schools say the popular trend is dangerous.  Officials say the gummy bears soak up all the vodka, making the alcohol undetectable.

Authorities say teens can easily become intoxicated eating the candy.
