| Raspberry Lime Freezer Jam |
Of
course, freezer jam can't sit in your pantry because it is not properly sealed
but it is great to make small batches of jam - keep a few jars for your family
and give away the others to deserving friends!
This jam
has not only sweet, delicious raspberries but also a hit of lime zest which
adds an amazing citrus zing to the jam.
Note: Also
can be made with blackberries…
Ingredients
4 c raspberries
1-1/2 c
sugar
1
package (45 g) freezer pectin or 2 Tbl. Ultra or Clear jel (Add the jel to the sugar first and stir before adding to raspberries. This helps it to dissolve better.)
zest of
2 small limes (after you have "zested" the limes, use the lime juice for limeade)
4-5
drops of Lime essential oil (optional)
Stir
everything in a large bowl for 3 minutes. Use a mixer for best results.
Spoon
into jars. Wipe clean and add lids. Close tightly.
Let sit
for 30 minutes so it thickens.
Refrigerate
- will last up to 3 weeks
Freeze -
will last many months
