I made a number of really tasty (and complicated) jams and jellies last year. This was one of the easiest and tastiest. As stated in the recipe, this is a refrigerator jam. It has not been tested for long-term storage after canning. Stay safe canners! 🙂

I was really skeptical, but this turned out way better than I expected. I made it with strawberries that were just passed their best, and cherry flavored Kool Aid. It tasted really fresh and fruity. Thanks, Connie!

Very easy! The kids picked watermelon/kiwi koolaid. When I finished filling the jars the kids grabbed bread and wiped the pot clean. This will be fun to give with fresh baked bread to friends and new neighbors.

Omitted the fruit and made jelly with artic apple koolaid brand drink mix…It created a very unusual flavor, but one that the kids loved.
