Homemade Beer Jelly
  1. Put a small plate into the freezer.

  2. Pour the sugar into a large, high (!) pot and add the beer.

  3. Add the pectin, the cinnamon, and the vanilla paste. If you instead use a vanilla bean, cut it open lengthwise and scrape the vanilla from the center. Add the vanilla and the bean to the pot. Later, remove the bean before filling the jars.

  4. Put the pot on the stove and bring to a boil while continuously stirring. The beer will create a lot of foam and rise very high, don't let it boil over.

  5. Boil for 4 minutes, then remove from the stove.

  6. Let the mixture calm down, so the foam decreases. Then take a teaspoon of the jelly and put it on the plate that you had in the freezer. After about a minute, tilt the plate and see if the liquid has jelled or is still runny.If it has jelled, it is ready to go into the jars.If it has not jelled, add some citric acid to the pot, bring it to a boil again for a short time, and repeat the steps above.

  7. Before you fill the jars, they must be sterilized with boiling water. Then fill the jelly in until almost to the brim, leaving as little space as possible. Add the lids and turn the jars upside down to cool.

  8. Print the labels (link in the blog text) and decorate the jars with them.
