You have quite a gift for Gummi beverages.

I second RMSs compliment; when you said you were intrigued by a gummi worm in a cocktail, you weren't kidding! What does a gummi frog look like as the alien in the alien shooter?
And a technical question for the peppermint bear shooter - why the gummi if you can't see it?

I haven't put a gummi frog in the alien shooter, but I imagine it would look like a specimen frog preserved in formaldehyde.

The peppermint bear shooter is like a Christmas present.  You don't know what's inside until you've unwrapped it.  Assuming you treat it like a shooter, you'll get a surprise, and peppermint, to me at least, hints towards Christmas or the holiday season generally.

My only fear is that I've found my niche.

Very true although, in my mind, spawning frogs are magical and wonderful.  My brother once had an above-ground pool that he neglected, and the tree frogs laid their eggs in it.  My friends and I would stare at the tadpoles and catch them and try to raise them.  Mine didn't do so well, and I'm going to chalk that blunder up to the fact that I was 9 although I still feel bad for all the caterpillars, rollie polies, tadpoles, and various other critters I brought into the house to raise.  They never stood a chance.  : (  I'm better with the larger animals.  ANYWAY!  Frogs are cool.
