WINE JELLY

• Use any red, rose or white wine. Or use a cream sherry, white port or marsala.
• Sweet wines make a more flavorful jelly than dry wines do.
• Tip: I have found this works best if you heat the wine and sugar while stirring. I couldn't get the sugar to dissolve until I did. I also filled the jars with hot water while making the jelly so they were warm when I filled them. This seemed to help the lids seal better.
