Tea Jelly

2 oz of you favorite loose Tea Blend
2 cups of water

3 C. of sugar
1/2 C. white grape juice
1/2 C. red grape juice
2 oz. pectin

Directions:

Boil 2 oz of tea in the 2 cups water. Bring to a boil then remove from heat. Let stand for 5 min. Remove tea bags or strain loose tea leaves out if needed. Place tea in a preserving pan or suitable saucepan. Add the juices and pectin. Boil hard for 1 minute. Add the sugar and stir well. Boil mixture hard 1 minute more. Remove from heat.

Test for setting - it should make a soft jelly, not a thick jam. Do this by placing a teaspoonful of the hot mixture on a saucer. Leave it to cool: the surface should wrinkle when pushed with a finger. If it is still runny, return the pan to the heat and continue boiling and testing until the jelly sets.

Ladle the jelly into sterilized glass jars and seal with waxed
