Low Sugar Limey Peach Jam

2 cups peaches
2/3 cup water
2 packages No Sugar/Low Sugar Pectin ( I had Ball brand on hand)
1 cup sugar
3 limes - zested and juiced

Drop peaches into boiling water for about 3-5 minutes so skin remove easily. Remove from water and drop into ice water.  Skin, seed, and chop peaches into 1/2" pieces. In a heavy bottomed pot add peaches, lime zest and juice, and pectin to fruit.  Follow package directions on pectin when adding sugar.

Skim off foam.  Pour into clean, sterilized jars, wipe rim clean, add lid and ring.

Process in hot water bath 5 minutes.

Yield: 3 pints
