Notes

If you haven't made my rhubarb and ginger gin you can use another 500g of rhubarb for this recipe and just before potting up the jam add 100ml of gin.
This recipe makes 750g of jam which will keep for up to a year in a cool dark place. Once opened store in the fridge and use within a month.
Calories etc taken from 1 tablespoon of jam.
