Pam's Raspberry Mango Marmalade image

Another of my fruity marmalade concoctions. With a nice large box of raspberries in my fridge, a bag of frozen mango chunks and a big bag of lemons, this seemed a natural. This will be another item in my Christmas gift baskets.

3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 c water
6 Tbsp ball natural pectin (dry)

Remove from burner and skim any foam off. Fill hot jars with mixture, leaving 1/4" headspace. Wipe rims and adjust two piece lids to finger tight.
