Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 500 g blackcurrants
  • 500 g Blackberries
  • 1 package (500 g) Gelling sugar (2 : 1)
  • 100 ml blackcurrant liqueur (e.g. cassis)
  • 4 Twist-off glasses

Directions

  1. 1

    Select, wash and drain the currants and blackberries. Juice the berries with a berry press (yields approx. 0.75 l). Do not throw away the skins and seeds (it is best to save them for liqueur).

  2. 2

    Mix jam sugar, berry juice and 100 ml black currant liqueur. Bring to the boil and simmer while stirring for about 5 minutes. Immediately pour into hot rinsed twist-off glasses. Close tightly and place on the lid for about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Turn the glasses back over. Let them cool down.
