Blueberry Mango Honey Swirl Jam

This is from the Ball website, which I have found to be the most reliable source of jam recipes.

This particular recipe has been a huge hit with the Little Dude, especially. It's visually interesting because the mangoes and blueberries stay separate in the har. It would make a great gift (if you don't eat it all yourself)!


1.5 cups sugar, divided
1.59-oz pkgs Ball® Simple Creations® Freezer Jam Fruit Pectin
1.25 cups crushed mango
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice, divided
1/4 cup honey, divided
1.75 cups crushed blueberries
5 Plastic Ball Freezer Jars
Directions:
Stir half of the sugar and half of the pectin package in a bowl until well blended. Add mango, half of the lime juice and half of the honey. Stir 3 minutes.
Stir remaining sugar and pectin in a bowl until well blended. Add mixed berries, remaining lime juice and honey. Stir 3 minutes.
Tilt jar, one at a time, pouring about 1/2 full with one flavor freezer jam. Keeping jar tilted, spoon second flavor on other side of jar. Repeat for remaining jars.
Twist on lids. Let stand until thickened, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 1 year.
