6 cups cranberries, fresh or frozen, rinsed and picked over 

3 cups sugar 

1 cup orange juice 

1 cup water 

1/4 cup jalapeno, minced with seeds removed 

1 tablespoon orange zest 

Directions: 

Combine all ingredients in a large stock pot. Bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. While jam is cooking, sterilized half-pint jars and lids according to manufacturer's directions. When jam is ready, ladle into prepared jars, allowing 1/8-inch headspace before sealing. Follow manufacturer's directions for processing in a hot-water bath for 5 minutes. 

Remove carefully and leave jars undisturbed for 12 to 24 hours. Make 5 - half pints.
