Variations of Plain Apple Jelly

Just before turning the jelly into the glasses, add one or two teaspoonfuls of vanilla extract.

When setting the apple juice to boil, add a lemon or an orange cut in very thin slices, first removing all seeds; skim out the lemon or orange before adding the sugar. Or boil the thin yellow rind and the juice of one or two lemons in each two quarts of juice prepared for jelly.

Just before turning the jelly into the glasses, hold in it for a few moments three or four lemon verbena or rose geranium leaves.

Or stir into it a teaspoonful of almond extract.
