1 (12-ounce) can unsweetened frozen apple juice concentrate
3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
1 teaspoon almond extract
1. In large saucepan, combine all ingredients except almond extract. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook and stir 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Skim foam from top. Stir in almond extract.
2. Ladle mixture into 7 clean, hot 8-oz. jars; cover with tight-fitting lids. Cool 2 hours
or until room temperature. Refrigerate 24 hours. (Preserves will thicken during refrigeration.) Store in refrigerator for up to 1 month.
TIP: * Frozen unsweetened pitted sweet cherries can be substituted for fresh cherries. Thaw slightly before chopping.
