Margaritas...if you like the drink, you will love this jam. Try it as a topping for cheesecake or mixed with cream cheese on bagels. Recipe is from a friend that know how much I like different kinds of jams and jellies. :o) cook time does not include time for water to boil in water bath canner Ingredients:
3 cups strawberries (crushed) |
1/4 cup lime juice |
2/3 cup tequila |
1/4 cup orange liqueur |
6 cups sugar |
1 (3 ounce) package liquid pectin |
Directions:
1. NOTE: Do NOT use a food processor to crush strawberries or you will get puree and jam will not have a good texture. Use a potato masher. 2. In a large pot, mix together strawberries, lime juice, tequila, and orange liqueur. 3. Stir in sugar, bring to a boil over high heat. 4. Stirring constantly. 5. Boil hard for 1 minute. 6. Remove from heat and immediately stir in pectin. 7. Skim off foam. 8. Stir for 5 minutes (this will prevent floating fruit). 9. Ladle into sterilized jars to within 1/4 inch from rim. Wipe rims clean. Apply lids and rings. Tighten to fingertip tight. 10. Process in boiling water bath for 5 minutes. |
