Tangy Hot Pepper Jelly image

I was given a jar of this jelly by a friend and had to have the recipe. It is the best pepper jelly I have ever tried. The apple juice gives it a beautiful color and adds to the wonderful taste. If you love pepper jelly, trying this recipe is a must. I use 3 jalapeno peppers when I make this jelly.
