1. Pour your bottle of wine into a heavy bottomed pot.
2. Lightly crush the cardamom pods with the side of a rolling pin and add them to the pot. Don't lose any of the little black seeds! Bring the pot to a simmer, then turn off the heat and let steep for 20 minutes.
3. Strain the cardamom from the wine and return the wine to the pan.
4. Mix 1/4 cup of the sugar, the pectin, and 3/4 cup water in a small bowl and stir to combine. Add to the wine and bring to a boil over high heat, whisking constantly.

1. First you will need to smash your berries and extract all the juice that you can from them. Jenny recommends using cheesecloth and smashing your berries in the cloth over a colander set in a large liquid measuring cup (8 cups size) and then wringing them in the cheesecloth over the liquid measuring cup. Once you have 3 1/2 cups of juice you are ready to move to the next step. Measure the sugar and set it aside in a bowl to be used later.
2. Fill your canning pot 2/3 full with water and put in on the stove on high heat, keeping the cover on. In another big pot place several clean jars and lids and fill with water. Place this pot on the stove and boil on med-high heat.
3. Pour the blackberry juice into a large pot. I would suggest a 6 quart stock pot or larger if you have it. It seems extreme but trust me you will need the space. Add the lemon juice and fruit pectin. Cook on high heat, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula. About 10 minutes. When it starts to boil rapidly, let it boil for a minute.
4. Then add 5 cups of sugar all at once. Continue to stir the mixture. The sugar will dissolve and it will be about another 10 minutes of stirring before it starts to boil again. During this phase the jam will “grow” in the pot and use up some of that extra space that you have. Keep stirring until 90% or more of the surface of the jam is made of small boiling bubbles. At this point when it is boiling rapidly again, let it boil for a minute then remove from heat. Turn the heat on your canning pot down at this point so the water is not boiling rapidly when you go to put your filled jars in.
