Description

A sweet and tangy homemade strawberry lemonade jam bursting with fresh fruit flavor, perfect for spreading on toast or swirling into yogurt.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 cups strawberries, hulled and chopped
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 package (1.75 oz) fruit pectin
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine strawberries, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Mash the strawberries slightly to release juices.
  2. Stir in the fruit pectin and water. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Add the sugar all at once and return to a full boil, stirring constantly. Boil hard for 1 minute.
  4. Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
  5. Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe rims and seal with lids and bands.
  6. Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool completely.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, use an immersion blender before adding the pectin.
  • Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place for up to one year.
  • Refrigerate after opening and use within 3 weeks.
