hey everyone it's James from fun foods and today I'm gonna make this homemade
Mountain Dew jelly or Jam whichever you like to call it either way
it's amazing so keep watching and I'll show you step by step how to make this
now the first thing we want to do is add four cups of Mountain Dew to a very
large pot
next we want to add two tablespoons of lemon juice now we're going to heat this
over high heat until it starts to boil and then we're going to boil it for
another five minutes to reduce down some of this water
my mountain Dew and lemon juice have been boiling for about five minutes it's
reduced the water content down quite a bit and what I'm going to do right now
is I'm gonna add this sure jell which is used to make jelly and jams it comes
with a little pouch like this we're going to use the whole pouch I'm gonna
cut it open and we're going to stir this pouch into our Mountain Dew mixture here
when that's stirred and really good now we're going to add four cups of sugar
slowly as we stir
and we're gonna bring this to a boil for another two minutes and once you've done
that for about two minutes it will bubble off a bit that's why we need that
really big pan just let it sit and we're gonna let it cool down just a hair
before we put it into our jars now I'm going to fill my jam jars with our
Mountain Dew jam now how I do that is usually you would use a ladle but you want to
make sure you use a metal ladle you don't want to use plastic because this
is extremely hot and I don't have a ladle I don't have metal ladle anyway I
have a plastic one so I am using this measuring cup because it's metal and be
very careful take some scoop a little bit out at a time and pour it into your
jam glass or jar
there we go and do the same with the rest of the jars now this has made about
two and a half jars of our Mountain Dew jam now what I'm going to do is clean
around it especially where the tops are going to go on and that way we'll have a
nice clean seal and keep in mind these are still very hot so you want something
to hold it with so you're not touching it with your hands because you will get
burned and when that's all done we're just going to put our tops on they come
like this where you have a different couple piece top two-piece top we want
to screw it on and again hold it with something screw it on nice and tight now
what we're going to do is seal our jars and how we're going to do that is get a
very large pot I filled it with some hot water make sure it's big enough so that
the water will cover the jars completely and we're going to put all three jars in
here and here we go I'm gonna put one in right now
then we're just gonna boil this for about ten minutes and we're going to
check the top and see if it's sealed properly well now my jelly is all done
each of these containers are sealed it made two-and-a-half jars full of this
mountain Dew jelly there's a lot of fun making this I am going to use this half
jar and you can use this jelly just as you would any other jelly whether it's
grape or strawberry jelly use it the same way jelly jam um it's all the same
so I'm just gonna take some of my Mountain Dew jam or jelly and put it on
some toast with some peanut butter so instead of having peanut butter and
grape jelly I'm gonna have peanut butter and Mountain Dew
jelly there we go
slap it on there here we go
definitely a must try well thanks everyone for watching I hope you enjoyed
