Cherry Jam

This is the best way to make jam! It is so easy and flavorful. Play around with the ingredients! Use strawberries, mangos, apples, peaches. Replace the citrus fruit with champagne (if you use champagne only use 3 tablespoons). Buy little jars, triple the recipe and give as gifts to people you love!
