I used only half the amount of sugar (but all the honey) and it turned out yummy! I am now kicking myself because I canned all of it thinking one of the jars usually doesn't seal. Can you imagine how disappointed I am that every last one sealed???? I'm betting by morning my hubbie will have opned a jar anyway. He really liked it! Thanks for sharing!

I thought this was a great recipe! I used about 6 cups of crushed berries, a little less than 4 cups of sugar, roughly a cup of honey, and lime juice (it was all I had) and a whole box of pectin. I did blend my berries to crush them which I had never done before and I don't think I'll ever do it again b/c it didn't fully thicken like it usually does. But it tastes delicious regardless! Thanks for a tasty recipe :)

I was born in a small Canadian prairie town but was raised in the city. Country living appeals to me more and more and now I think I have the best of both worlds, living just outside the city but within a 30 minute drive from downtown.
I enjoy the wildlife I see out my kitchen window and my vegetable and flower gardens in the summer. And I love cooking with the produce from my garden, although there always seems to be too much at once. Learning to can became a necessity with all those beautiful vegetables and I now really enjoy making pickles, relish, salsa, jams and whatever else strikes my fancy.
I have 2 teenage sons and cooking to suit everyone's taste is always a challenge. Recipezaar has certainly made life easier in that regard, with so many great recipes to choose from.
