Apple Cider Jelly

It's not too sweet as less sugar is needed. I use the dark cider (or use your homemade cider) for more robust cider taste.

Use 5 cups sugar, make sure you don't add sugar until you have a rolling boil, after you add the pectin/sugar mix. Add all 5 cups at once, and stir on and off til another rolling boil. When your mix starts to foam, and boil up the sides of your kettle, slowly turn it down to a simmer, stir and boil another 3-5 minutes. Do the freezer test, and then bottle it...it will set as it cools after the water bath...DEEE-licious!Reply
