- Put all the fruit into a large pan and just cover with water. Bring to the boil and then simmer for approximately 20 minutes or until all the fruit is soft.
- Pour into a jelly bag (or muslin in a sieve/ even old tights will do) and let it drip into a bowl over night.
- Discard pulp and measure the juice. Pour this into your pan and add the correct amount of sugar (see above), heat gently to dissolve the sugar and bring to boil for about 5 minutes until the setting point has been reached.
- Spoon into sterilized jars and seal.
