Noel (New Jersey) says:

This is the recipe that was in the pre-1995 Sure-Jell Light packages. Then they changed the name of the product to "Sure Jell for lower sugar recipes" and no longer included this simple recipe. Does not have a very firm set, but makes up for that with a shocking red color and delicious fresh strawberry taste. The family all gets together every year and we make huge quantities of this!
