120 minutes

Mix jam is a fragrant and vibrant dessert inspired by the traditions of Azerbaijani cuisine. It features a harmonious blend of sweet apricots, juicy cherries, and tart cranberries that create a rich flavor ensemble. Cooked in sugar syrup with refreshing mint added, it acquires a light spicy note. This jam is prepared in several stages, allowing the fruits to absorb the sweetness of the syrup and reveal all flavor nuances. The jam pairs wonderfully with toast and pastries but can also be an elegant addition to morning tea. Its rich taste evokes associations with sunny summer days, and each piece fills you with warmth and coziness. The fruits sealed in jars retain their tenderness to provide a sense of summer freshness even in winter.
