5 lbs sugar
2 medium bottles Certo
5 to 6 drops green food coloring.
Preparation:
*Note: If I am making green jelly, I try to use a red pepper for a little color If I use the red coloring, the green peppers are decorative enough. The real proof is in the taste! I've also found that the white vinegar makes a jelly with more sparkle.

4-Skim top.
