Ingredients

2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon citrus zest (optional)
1\/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1\/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 packet pectin
1\/2 cup water
How to Make Christmas Red Jam
Wash and prepare the berries, removing any stems or leaves.
In a large saucepan, combine the berries, sugar, water, and citrus zest.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
Add the cinnamon, cloves, and pectin, simmering the jam until it reaches the desired consistency.
Once the jam thickens and coats the back of a spoon, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Transfer the jam into sterilized jars, seal them tightly, and allow them to cool completely before refrigerating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
