Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Prepare the berries
Wash the strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Remove the stems from the strawberries and cut them into small pieces. Leave the raspberries and blackberries whole.
Combine ingredients
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the prepared berries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine.
Cook the jam
Place the pot over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45-60 minutes, or until the jam has thickened and reaches your desired consistency.
Test the jam
To test if the jam is ready, place a small plate in the freezer for 5 minutes. Spoon a small amount of jam onto the chilled plate and let it sit for 30 seconds. If the jam wrinkles when you push it with your finger, it's ready. If not, continue cooking and test again in 5-10 minutes.
Sterilize jars
While the jam is cooking, sterilize the jars and lids by boiling them in water for 10 minutes. Remove the jars and lids from the water and let them air dry on a clean towel.
Fill the jars
Carefully ladle the hot jam into the sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top. Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean, damp cloth and place the lids on top. Screw the lids on tightly.
Cool and store
Let the jars cool to room temperature, then store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 months or in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year. Enjoy your homemade mixed fruit jam!
