Mountain Dew Jelly
 
3.25 C Mountain Dew
2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
4.5 C Sugar
1 box Sure Jell Pectin
0.5 tsp margarine

Pour the Dew and lemon juice into a large (6 or 8 qt) saucepan.
Stir in 1 box Sure-jell pectin. Add margarine (to prevent foaming
during cooking). Bring mixture to a full rolling boil on high heat,
stirring constantly.  Add the sugar all at once.  Return to full
rolling boil for _1 MINUTE_, stirring constantly. Remove from heat,
skim off the foam and fill and seal jars.

The recipe is basically the "Elderberry Jelly" recipe from the
Sure-Jell box, with the Mtn Dew and lemon juice amounts altered
slightly.  I imagine you could add some food coloring to it.

Yield: approx 5 cups (37 mg Caffeine per cup!)
