    List of Ingredients


    • 4 1/2 c crushed fresh blueberries (approx 6 c whole)
    • 1 Tbsp grated lime peel (use a zester if possible to get shreds)
    • 1/3 c fresh lime juice (approx 2 fresh limes)
    • 7 c granulated sugar
    • 1 bottle or box (2 pouches) Certo


    Instructions


    1. Wash and drain blueberries. Crush in a large bowl with a potato masher or buzz in a food processor to produce the 4 1/2 cups.
    2. In a large pan place the berries, lime peel, lime juice and sugar, mixing well. Bring to a boil stirring until the sugar has dissolved, and then bring to a full rolling boil. Boil hard for one minute.
    3. Remove from heat and stir in the Certo liquid pectin. Continue to stir for a few minutes to cool slightly and skim off any foam with a metal spoon.
    4. Carefully ladle or pour (with a wide-mouth funnel) into hot sterilized jars. Leave approximately 1/4 inch of head space. Seal with jar lids, observing the method of preparing the lids.
