Found this to be too sugary sweet, not enough apple flavor. Set beautifully, but i'll keep looking for a stronger apple tasting jelly.

    Wanted to add into this review that I've made this several times now with a couple of adaptions and it works well with them all. In one I added 1/2 cup finely chopped jalapeno's and 2 drops green food coloring to make a apple/pepper combo and in another added 6oz of red hot cinnamon candies to make a candy apple flavored jelly. Both turned out awesome. I'll add photos of each.

    This is a great recipe, simple and easy to do. I used bottled unsweetened apple juice.
