First-timer here! First time I pickes blackberries, picked to manny and had to make something! I liked how specific and easy this recipe was. Took the liberty of adding a 1/4 Cup of freshly squeezed lemon. Ended up with 9 - 8oz. jars. -Really good, thank you. I am about to make the Spiced Peach Jam!
