  4. Using Pomona’s Universal Pectin allows you to use as much, or as little, sweetener as you want in your homemade jams and jellies since the gelling process does not depend on the sugar content but on the pectin itself. You can decide the type of sweetener as well, rather it be honey, honey granules, or 100% fruit juice, making your jams and jellies much healthier alternatives. 4 cups mashed fruit 1-2 Tablespoons lemon juice ¾ c – 2 cups honey granules 2 teaspoons calcium water 2 teaspoons pectin Prepare fruit. Measure fruit into a pot. Add the lemon juice and calcium water. Stir well. In separate bowl, combine honey granules and pectin. Bring fruit mixture to a full boil.  Add pectin/sugar mixture. Stir vigorously for 1-2 minutes to dissolve pectin and honey granules, while mixture returns to a full boil. Remove from heat. Jar and can as desired. Or pour into a qt jar and let cool. Once cooled, refrigerate.
