I made some honey Sweetened Plum-Blueberry Jam with this recipe

But I don't know what I did, I think I didn't use enough pectin for the amount of puree I had, but it was too watery. At the suggestion of a friend I decided to make an Italian Soda.

What you need:
   A couple of cubes of ice
   3 Tbl of Homemade Jam
   1 Tbl of Xylitol    I don't know how that would translate to other sweeteners maybe 1 tbl or 2 of honey depending on how sweet you like it. I used 3 for my brother who is practically begging to be diabetic.
   Club Soda

What you need to do:
   Put the ice in, add the Jam, and sweetener, add the club soda to the top of glass and mix until fully combined.

Serve it to your family as a delicious wholesome treat and watch as they BEG for more then laugh in delight when you cackle, "NO it's miiiineeee muahahahahah"

not that i did that. Just sayin, you might want to. Because it's just THAT good.
