Blackberry-and-apple Jelly Recipe ingredients

• 3 pounds of blackberries
• 1 cup of water
• 1½ pounds of apples
• 2½ pounds of sugar

To prepare this Blackberry-and-apple Jelly Recipe, first core the apples, and cut in small pieces, without removing the skins. Mash the berries with a wooden pestle; add the water and apple and let simmer ten minutes, mashing the fruit occasionally. Strain through two folds of fine cheesecloth; let the juice boil, then add the sugar and cook gently half an hour, stirring occasionally. Store in jelly glasses. The apple gives a firmer jelly than the berries alone will give.
