Winter is also a great time to try out recipes like these instead of when your buried in the bounty of the growing season!
This is a very simple recipe that you can really customize. This recipe uses Root Beer as the soda of choice, but feel free to substitute your favorite flavor!

Easy access for here consider it stolen LOL




Ingredients

1 12oz Bottle of Root Beer (or soda of choice)
1 3oz packet Liquid Pectin (Do not use powdered pectin. It will not set.)
3 Cups Sugar

Instructions

Place jars in canner and heat water to boiling.
Place lids in small pan and heat, but do not boil.
In large pot, combine root beer and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Let boil for 1 full minute. Add pectin and bring to full roiling boil (cannot stir down the boil). Continue to stir constantly. After 1 full minute at roiling boil, remove from heat.
Remove jars from canner and fill, leaving a quarter of an inch headspace. Remove any air bubbles in the jar and wipe rims clean.
Affix lids and rings to jars, making sure they are "fingertip tight" and place in canner. Bring water back to a boil and process for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and then let sit for 5 minutes before removing from pot.
Let cool for 24 hours without moving. Then you jam is done. Time to enjoy!

I'll try almost anything once.

Okay. That one is one I have to find someone to do for me, since I do not have a canner.

Also got the wine jelly recipe so they can make some champagne jelly for me, too.

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!

Just my opinion.

I may have to make some of that. Think of it fresh sourdough still warm from the oven and root beer jelly.

MMM, this bread is great. Just enough crust and light and a nice twang. Maybe I will make some garlic toast for dinner tonight instead of just serving the bread.
