Cider and Sage Jelly

[philg]

Last year my wife purchased a jar of Cider and Sage Jelly from Sainsburys and we'd now like another one.. Snag is, it doesn't seem to exist any more

Does anyone know of another brand (or even a recipe for Cider and Sage Jelly)??

Thanks

Make it yourself: American recipe so adapt the quantities of you don't have a cup measure (US cups are different to EU size):

Make jelly infusion by pouring 1 cup boiling water over 1/2 cup fresh or 4 tablespoons dried sage leaves. Let simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Strain and use 1/2 cup of this sage infusion.

Combine the 1/2 cup of sage infusion with these ingredients:

3-1/2 cups sugar
1 cup fresh apple cider
1/4 cup lemon juice


Directions:
Bring this to a boil and add 2 drops green food coloring and 4 drops yellow food coloring. When this reaches a hard, rolling boil, add 1 packet of liquid pectin (Certo). Then bring back to a hard boil and boil for 1 minute. Skim off foam and pour into sterilizing jars. Cap.

Hope that helps!!
