How to Make Preserves Frozen Berries Strawberry Cherry Blueberry

  1. **Prepare the Strawberries:** Gently thaw 2 cups of frozen strawberries. Roughly chop them into ½-inch pieces.
  2. **Strawberry Preserves:** In a nonstick saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries with 1 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1/4 cup of water.
  3. **Cook the Strawberry Preserves:** Bring the mixture to a medium heat, stirring frequently. Cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the preserves have thickened significantly and reduced in volume. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools.
  4. **Prepare the Cherry & Blueberry Preserves:** In a separate nonstick saucepan, combine 2 cups of frozen cherries, 2 cups of frozen blueberries, 1 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1/4 cup of water.
  5. **Cook the Cherry & Blueberry Preserves:** Bring the mixture to a medium heat, stirring frequently. Cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the preserves have thickened significantly and reduced in volume. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools.
  6. **Cool & Store:** Remove both preserves from heat and allow to cool completely. Once cooled, they will thicken further. Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage. Each recipe yields approximately 2 cups of preserves.
