1/4 cup of lemon juice
1 package of pectin (powdered or liquid)

Instructions
Now let's get started on making your delicious Christmas freezer jam:
Start by washing and chopping your berries into small pieces.
In a large bowl, mix together the chopped berries and the sugar. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a separate bowl, mix together the pectin and lemon juice.
Add the pectin mixture to the berry and sugar mixture and stir for 3 minutes, making sure everything is well combined.
Pour the mixture into clean plastic containers or glass jars, leaving about ½ inch of space at the top for expansion.
Let the jam sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to thicken, then place it in the freezer for at least 24 hours before serving.
Your Christmas freezer jam is now ready to be enjoyed! It will last in the freezer for up to 6 months, so you can make it ahead of time and have it ready for holiday gatherings or as a thoughtful gift for friends and family.
