This recipe had a nice flavour and I like the idea of it, but I didn't find it turned out very well. I followed the recipe carefully but the result was very liquidy, and in fact there was alot of extra beyond the 5 half pints. It has alot of liquidy ingredients with the extra lime juice, so maybe it needs more boiling down before adding the pectin.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
