INSTRUCTIONS
Crush blackberries in a large kettle. Add water and bring to a boil. Reduce
heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes. Strain through a jelly bag,
reserving juice and discarding pulp. Add water to juice if necessary to
equal 2 quarts; pour into a large kettle. Slowly stir in sugar until
dissolved. Place spices in a cheesecloth bag; add to juice. Simmer,
uncovered, for 30 minutes. Bring to a boil; remove the spice bag and
discard. Pour hot into jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Adjust caps.
Process for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath. To serve, mix about
one-third concentrate with two-thirds soda. Yield about 4 pints
concentrate.
