ROSE APPLE JELLY 
2 c. canned or bottled apple juice or cider
Juice of 1 lemon (about 3 tablespoons)
1/4 tsp. red food coloring
1 env. (1 oz.) pectin mix
3 c. sugar

Combine juices and coloring in a 4 quart saucepan or kettle, add pectin mix and blend. Measure sugar and set aside. Bring juice and pectin mix to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Add sugar, again bring to a hard boil and cook for 4 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat, skim and pour at once into hot clean glasses, leaving a 1/4 to 1/2 inch margin at the top.

Cover at once with a thin coating of hot melted paraffin. When cool, apply a second thin coating of paraffin rolling it around the top of the glass. Cover when cool with a loose metal or paper cover. This will make five (6 oz.) glasses of jelly.
