   Servings: makes 6 - 1/2 pint jars Notes:
   
   Sauterne may be replaced by other white wines in this sweet tart jelly. The
   flavor lends itself for use both as a spread on breads and as a meat glaze.
   It can also be reheated for use as a dessert sauce on ice cream, sliced
   oranges, or berries.
   
   Place orange juice, sauterne, and lemon juice in heavy saucepan. Mix
   together 3/4 cup sugar and the powdered light fruit pectin. Add to wine
   mixture. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a
   hard boil. Stir in remaining sugar. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring
   constantly. Boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and skim off foam with
   metal spoon. Immediately pour into hot sterilized jars, add optional sprigs
   of tarragon, if desired, and vacuum seal (hot water bath method, or can be
   refrigerated up to 6 weeks).
