Ingredients:
10 c. fresh blueberries, washed and stems removed
2 c. raw sugar cane
2 c. splenda (if you dont want to use splenda, add 2 c. more raw sugar cane)
1 packet sure gel low sugar jam
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 c. water
1/4 c. lemon juice

Directions:
Rinse blueberries and place into a heavy bottom pot and add in 1/4 cup of white sugar mixed with the package of sure gel and lemon juice. Slowly bring to a boil while stirring constantly.

Once boiling add in splenda and remaining sugar and cinnamon all at once. Keep stirring constantly and bring back to a rolling boil. Boil for one minute and then remove from heat and place into sanitized mason jars (fill up to a 1/2 inch from the top of the jar. Carefully wipe off any spills and place lids and rings on the jars. Use your tongs and place filled jars back into the large pot of hot water, bring to a boil and let boil for 10 minutes. Remove jars with the tongs and let dry on a cooling rack undisturbed overnight. Then label the jars.
