    I do not understand the measurements listed for sugar in the pomegranate jelly recipe. Will you please let me know how much sugar to add to the four cups of juice? We have pomegranate bushes and I would love to make jelly from their fruit. They produce more than we can eat. Thanks for your recipe!
