Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 500 g currants, red
  • 500 g sour cherries
  • 500 g gelling sugar (2:1)
  • 100 ml Campari

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 3 hours; Total time approx. 3 hours 30 minutes

Fruity with a kick, makes about 5 – 6 jam jars of 230 ml each

Remove the stems from the washed currants. Lightly crush the currants, then add the washed and pitted cherries. Mix all the fruit with the gelling sugar and let it sit in the refrigerator for about 3-4 hours. Since the jam is meant to be chunky, pureeing the fruit is not necessary. Bring the fruit to a boil while stirring, then simmer for 4 minutes. Stir in the Campari, bring to a boil briefly, and then ladle the hot jam into clean twist-off jars and seal tightly immediately.
