5 tablespoons culinary lavender flowers
4 tablespoons powdered pectin
3 cups apple juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup sugar
2 cups brown sugar
Cheesecloth
Place lavender flowers within a square of cheesecloth and tie ends to close and form a bag.
Combine the pectin and apple juice in a 6-quart saucepan, stirring until dissolved. Over high heat, bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Stir in brown sugar and lemon juice and drop in the lavender flower bag.
Boil for for 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove bag and strain mixture through a sieve lined with a double thickness of cheesecloth and pour directly into sterilized 8 ounce jars.
