Mixed Berry Jam
Fills about 11 8 oz jelly jars

To make jam:
5 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen- thaw first)
5 cups blackberries (fresh or frozen- thaw first)
1/8 cup lemon juice
½ cup water
1 box pectin
7 cups sugar

Place blueberries, blackberries, lemon juice, and water in large pot. Mash thoroughly, or if available, run through a Squeezo or juicer. This may change your yield just a bit, but keeps you from having to deal with the blackberry seeds which we’re not terribly fond of. Add pectin. Bring to boil that cannot be stirred away. Add sugar and bring to a second boil. Boil 1-2 minutes. Ladle into clean jars and seal.
