In a large enamel kettle, using a wooden spoon, stir pectin into the water until dissolved. Bring to a boil over high heat; boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add wine, then sugar, stirring constantly, reducing heat to medium. Cook for 5 or 6 minutes to dissolve sugar. Do not boil. Remove from heat, skim with metal spoon as necessary. Quickly pour into hot sterile glasses. Cover with hot paraffin or use seal-type lids and rings. Chill before serving. Delicious with meats.
Note: For a milder flavor, add water to wine for total not to exceed 32 fluid ounces. A few drops of red food coloring added during final cooking stage enhances the color when using red wine.
Editor's Extra: Deliciously made with rosé, the beautiful clear pink color of this jelly is as pretty as the taste is delicate.
