Ingredients
- 1 quart strawberries, topped and quartered
- 2 pints raspberries

Directions
In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, raspberries, sugar, orange zest and juice. Stir to combine and let macerate for 30 minutes.

I made this today because Strawberry's are now in season. It turned out perfectly. Very good flavor, texture and thickness. I didn't change a thing, followed recipe exactly. We put them in canning jars with some homemade decoration and plan on giving them to our kids to enjoy over the summer months. I definately will make this again and again. Thanks Anne for all your secrets and great recipes.

I too have the problem that it did not set up and is runny. I used 2 packages of pectin and only 3/4 cup water, however, it does not say what size orange to use or how much juice. The orange I used was pretty big, so now all you can taste is orange and it's runny. Disappointed.
