  1. My 1st time making peach jam. Wanted an unusual one, I got it. Didn't have bourbon so I used caramel apple rum and homemade vanilla. Made 2 batches. Second one may be thicker but no matter, it tastes wonderful! Thanks for makin my 1st time with peaches a great one. Oh, I heaped up my pectin when I measured it as I buy it in bulk and it's easy to add a little more if I think I need it.
     
  2. I made this without the bourbon and it still tastes great. I would describe it as more of a thick sauce than a jam, as it calls for 2 more cups of peaches than the pectin box jam recipe.
     
  3. I used your recipe and updated because several reviews said it didn't set up properly. I used 4 cups peaches (5 peaches), 5 cups of sugar and 1/2 tsp butter (to reduce foaming). It turned out wonderful. Great consistency. I did one batch with bourbon and one without. Both delicious. Thank you so much for sharing!!!
     
  4. The taste of this is VERY good, however, it is NOT jam. If you follow the recipe listed, you will get a chunky syrup. It will NOT gel as jam should. I needed to empty my jars, add another 2 packets of pectin and re-cook this for it to gel into jam.
     
  5. A very tasty peach jam with a mysterious flavour, the vanilla and Cognac I added really turned a simple peach jam into something special!! I can't wait to try this on ice cream!!
