Cherry Berry Jam

Ingredients

  • 7 cups granulated sugar
  • 3 cups pitted cherries
  • 2 cups quartered fresh strawberries
  • 1½ cups fresh blueberries
  • 1½ cups fresh raspberries
  • ½ cup bottled lemon juice

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to a non-reactive Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 30 minutes. Ladle into hot sterilized half-pint (1 cup) jars, leaving a ¼ inch headspace. Remove air bubbles with a narrow rubber spatula or plastic knife. If needed, add additional jam to maintain headspace. Wipe jar rims thoroughly with a clean damp cloth. Seal and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes at all altitudes in Alberta.
