Combine
berries and the water in large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat;
simmer, covered about 25 minutes or until berries are soft and pulpy.
Strain mixture through large piece of damp muslin into large bowl; allow
mixture to drip through cloth for several hours or overnight. Do not
squeeze or press the mixture through the cloth as this will result in
cloudy jelly.
Measure the
strained liquid, discard pulp. Allow the correct amount of sugar to each
cup of liquid. Return liquid with sugar and juice to clean large
saucepan; stir over heat, without boiling, until sugar dissolves. Boil,
uncovered without stirring, about 20 minutes or until jelly sets when
tested. Pour hot jelly into hot sterilized jars; seal while hot.
