I changed the servings to 8 jars which was 1 quart blackberries, 3 1/2 cups sugar and 2/3 package of pectin. I used fresh picked blackberries from my back pond area. After crushing/mashing the blackberries I stirred in the sugar and let sit for about 1 hour stirring often to help dissolve and combine the sugar before mixing in the hot pectin. Wonderful flavor :) Can't wait to serve over some waffles.
