tlove2, do you want to post your Kool-Aid jelly recipe? I don’t know that recipe, so hard to say. Don’t post the recipe here in the comments. Go to Submit Recipes (button in the green menu bar above).

This looks devine, I have been making jellies, jams and preserves myself this Summer. I would love to have one of those juicers, I have a B-day coming up so maybe I’ll get one. I wanted to ask you, or anybody that blogs on here, just how do you know or determine how much sugar and pectin you need for your recipes, and how do you decide rather to use the liquid or the powder? I know what the recipes that I have followed call for, but say for instance I myself have been experimenting with different jelly making patterns i.e. wine jellies, mixed fruit combinations, and so on. I would just like to know is it a personal preference as to how much or which one to use?
