Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups black raspberry juice from 3-4 quarts black raspberries
  • 3 cups sugar

Method
 

  1. Extract juice by cooking black raspberries with 1/4 cup water per cup of fruit until fruit falls apart. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, then measure the juice.
  2. Prepare a water bath canner if canning.
  3. Combine juice and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a hard boil and cook until gel stage (220°F) is reached, about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Ladle jelly into prepared jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Process jars in a water bath canner for 10 minutes.
  5. Allow jars to cool, then store sealed jars in the pantry or unsealed jars in the refrigerator.

Notes

For a firmer set, test the gel stage by placing a small amount on a chilled plate. If it wrinkles when pushed, it's ready.
