Peach Raspberry JamPeach Raspberry JamPeach Raspberry Jam

I received an email from my sister in Las Vegas that her trees are going crazy and it’s time to get to our yearly canning extravaganza. Here is the picture of her fridge from Wednesday!

She decided to start without me and did 34 jars this weekend to get some of the baskets taken care of in the fridge. I told her that I had a request from one of my followers for a peach raspberry jam and with 60 plus pounds of peaches a season that was an easy request for today.

Here is my sisters gorgeous Peach Raspberry jam and the low sugar recipe she did since the peaches from her tree are really sweet. Thanks again Cheryl for making canning a family affair once a year! Love you!

I know that you have several choices so I wanted to start including all the options. Enjoy!
