Step 1: Wash and rinse containers (make sure they are sterile).
Step 2: Prepare the berries crushing one cup at a time using a potato masher. Measure exact amount of berries and juice and place in a large bowl.
Step 3: Measure the exact amount of sugar (no sugar substitutes) and stir into the prepared fruit; mix well and let stand for 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
Step 4: While waiting, in a small bowl, stir the Certo fruit pectin into the lemon juice.
Step 5: After the 10 minutes has gone by with the berries, stir the pectin mixture into the prepared fruit.
Step 6: Stir constantly until sugar is completely dissolved and no longer grainy--about 4 minutes (a few sugar crystals may remain--it's O.K.).
Step 7: Pour into prepared containers, leaving a 1/2" space at the top for expansion during the freezing; cover.
Step 8: Let stand at room temperature for 24 hours till set.
Step 9: You may store in the refrigerator for about 3 weeks or store in the freezer for up to one year; thaw in the refrigerator.
