I live in south Florida and have lots of tropical fruit trees. They bear so much fruit, it's impossibIe to eat it all! I love this fruit, but other than making wine, never tried anything else. Made this jelly and it was absolutely delicious. I mix it into my plain yogurt and it's sooo good. Making more batches for Christmas gifts! Thank you for sharing the recipe.
