 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  7       c            Blueberries (or two 12-oz
                       Packages frozen blueberries)
    1/2   c            Plus 2 Tbsp apple-grape
                       Concentrate sweetener (see
                       Separate recipe)
  2       tb           Orange juice
  2       tb           Water
    3/4   ts           Ground cinnamon
    1/2   ts           Ground nutmeg
    1/4   ts           Ground cloves
    1/4   ts           Ground mace

 1. If using fresh blueberries, wash, drain and remove any bits of stem.

 2. In a 4-quart saucepan, combine the berries, apple-grape sweetener,
 orange juice, water, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and mace.  Bring to a boil
 and reduce the heat to medium.  Cook at a low boil 20 minutes, stirring
 often, until very thick.  (To test for gelling, put about 1/2 teaspoon jam
 on a chilled saucer and place in freezer for 1 minute.  If, when cooled,
 jam wrinkles when touched, it is done.)  Skim the foam from the top of the
 jam during the cooking time.

 3. Ladle into freezer containers, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.  Cool, cover
 and place in freezer.
