I made this a while back and canned it. It's a great tasting preserves. I really love the flavors. Thanks so much for sharing!

This was my first attempt at canning and I must say, your recipe was easy to follow. The process also made my entire house smell so wonderful! I brought in some fresh bagels and a jar of the preserves to work and everyone loved the taste and wanted the recipe. This one is a MUST in my canning recipe file!

Yes sweet, but it was wonderful. I added a little extra tequila for a stronger margarita flavor. Excellent on bagles with cream cheese. Tones down the sweetness a bit. Next time I will use a little less sugar.
