We make Christmas baskets every year and fill them with homemade "goodies". I am always looking for something fun and unusual to put in them. This jelly was well received and everyone liked it. You can substitute the white zinfandel with champagne, rose wine or sangria if you like. The original recipe came from the Sure-jell website. (Cooking time includes, prep, cooking and processing).
