Cranberry Citrus Marmalade

Not only is this beautiful it tastes wonderful! I had an extra bag of frozen cranberries I wanted to use up and this was the perfect marmalade to use them in. I used a red grapefruit and a red orange. The color is outstanding.

Thanks for this lovely recipe... I used mandarins, as they are so seasonal. It looks so pretty in the jar, and it tastes great... this is an annual batch for me now, thanks!

I did not have a grapefruit, so I made this with lemon & 2 oranges. It is good. I also liked that this did not call for liquid pectin. I live in L.A. CA and I can not seem to find it anywhere, only the powder kind.
