Spiced Blueberry Jam

The spices added to this jam, make it more than something
to just add to your morning toast!

Try it  on the side of a cheese platter or spread it onto
Brie cheese and a baguette.

Add it to your Greek yogurt, or a dollop on
a slice of cheesecake!

The choices are endless!

As Always, 
ENJOY!
