Apple Cider Jelly cocktails 10.2.14

Equal parts Apple Cider Jelly and Cognac.  An apple slice and dash of cinnamon for garnish.  Maybe add extra lemon juice next time.



Apple Cider Jelly ( I made ¼ x batch)
8 c apple cider
1.75 oz fruit pectin
4 apples diced
4 c sugar
2T apple pie spice

Apple Pie Spice
4T cinnamon
1T all spice
2 t nutmeg
1 ½ t ginger

Cook cider, pectin and apple until boiling.  Add sugar and cook to 220. Stir in spices and pour into jars. You can freeze or can this jelly. If jelly is too thick, return to heat and add 2 T for each cup of jelly until mixture comes together.

I haven't been able to figure out this recipe yet.  I can only get the mixture to 212 even after boiling for over 45 mins.  So this cocktail is an effort to save some of this jelly, since I can't use it for much now.  It is liquid.
