That sounds really good! I make alot of jam and have never made spiced peach jam, although lots of regular peach . So far we have cherry and raspberry and am hoping to make some strawberry today. I have never used liquid pectin. Does it work better?
I don't know if the liquid works better or not! I just use what the recipe tells me. :-) It works great for this recipe. ;-)
mmm... think I'm going to have to try this. Peaches are in season and in abundance here now.
