4 cups sugar to each 5 cups of chokecherry juice
Directions:
Directions:
Bring clean, stemmed chokecherries to a boil, just barely covering with water. Boil 15-20 mins. on medium heat then mash thoroughly with a potato masher. Strain through a cloth bag (I use an old pillowcase) over night. Measure juice and add to heavy saucepan. Add sugar and bring to a boil stirring often. Boil 10 - 15 mins. Pour into sterilized jars and seal. Process in boiling water 10 mins. If berries are over-ripe you will have syrup (my favourite!) instead of jelly.
