Ingredients
- 4 cups cranberries (frozen)
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- ¼ cup Jalapeno peppers finely minced (about 2-3 small peppers)
- 2 Tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime zest
Instructions
- In a large sized saucepan, combine all ingredients and stir until combined. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes or until liquid releases into the bottom of the pan.
- Place over medium high heat and stir until the berries begin to burst and sugar is dissolved.
- Use a potato masher, or the back of the spoon to press the berries until smooth.
- Increase the temperature slightly and cook until the jam reaches 220 degrees, stirring every few minutes. This will take about 25-30 minutes.
- Remove jam from heat and allow to cool slightly, before transferring to jars for storage.

Notes
- To prevent bacterial growth, ensure that your jars are clean and sterilized before you store the jam.

- Leave out the jalapeno seeds for less heat.
