Sparkling Holiday Jam Festive Sparkling Cranberry-Raspberry Jam with Orange Zest & Bubbly Ingredients: 2 cups fresh cranberries 2 cups fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed) 1 cup sparkling wine (e.g., prosecco or champagne) 2 1/2 cups granulated sugar 2 tablespoons orange zest 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice 1 packet liquid fruit pectin (or equivalent powdered form) Directions: In a large saucepan, combine cranberries, raspberries, orange zest, and orange juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cranberries pop and raspberries break down. Stir in the sparkling wine and sugar. Increase heat and bring mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil hard for 1 minute, then remove from heat. Stir in the liquid pectin and return to a boil for another 1–2 minutes to activate the pectin. Test jam’s consistency by placing a spoonful on a chilled plate—if it sets and wrinkles when pushed, it's ready. Ladle hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe rims, seal with lids, and either process in a water bath for 10 minutes or refrigerate once cooled.
