Port Wine Jelly

Sharing another blog draft.  I guess I had plans to make another batch of this jelly, but never did.  I used to make it for gifting family and friends.  The first time making this jelly, was back in August of 2013.  There used to be a link to a free online recipe for this, and since then, the link no longer works.

It's actually called Balsamic Vinegar-Ruby Port Jelly, from Better Homes and Gardens Special Interest Publications (2013).

I did not do a lot of searching online, but I did see this magazine for sale on ebay and other locations, including an ebook option.  


The same magazine also contains a recipe for strawberry margarita jam, that is so good!  It's not reduced sugar, but it is also great for gifting (or for yourself).

It is a magazine, but I cannot remember where I picked it up either.  If you search on Bing for the jelly recipe it comes up, but not on Google Chrome (as of this post anyway).




The jelly is great for snacking, as in an appetizer with cream cheese and crackers, but it is not good at all for a PB and J sandwich.

If you are looking for a different jelly to gift, or take along to gatherings for an appetizer, this is a good one.  Also,  I originally canned this in half pint jars, but for gifting, I would use the 4 oz. canning jars.
