Orange Elderberry Syrup

Orange Elderberry Syrup

3 cups elderberry juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 1/2 cups sugar
1 pkg (3 oz) Orang gelatin/jello

In large sauce pot (6-8qt) add juices, gradually stir in gelatin. Bring to full boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Add sugar, stir to dissolve. Return mixture to full rolling boil. Boil hard for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add to jelly jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Process 10 minutes in boiling bath canner. If you don't want to do any canning, you could always keep it in the fridge/freezer. (Adapted from Ball FruitJell Pectin recipe for elderberry jelly)

Try: 2 packages of gelatin instead of one, to see if it will set like jelly
