For this recipe it only calls for 1 cup of peach juice. But for peach jelly I would guess probably be the 3 1/2 Cups which would be the total of the juices above. Here is my Peach Jelly recipe:
PEACH JELLY
Ingredients:
• 3 cups peach juice about 3 pounds peaches and 1/2 cup water)
• 5 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup bottled lemon juice
• l box powdered pectin
Directions:
To Prepare Juice: Wash and slice or chop fully-ripe peaches. Do not pit or peel. Crush fruit. Place crushed fruit and 1/2 cup water in saucepan. Cover, bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Extract juice.
To make jelly: Measure sugar and set aside. Measure prepared juice, powdered pectin and lemon juice into a large saucepot. Bring to a full boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. At once, stir in sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down. Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, quickly skim off foam. Pour jelly immediately into hot, sterile canning jars, leaving 1 inch headspace. Wipe jar rims and adjust lids. Process the jars for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath.
