I’m so happy to hear that you like the recipe Stef. I made it after seeing that it was being searched for on my blog so felt obliged to please whoever it was. I later found out it was one of my regular readers so she was very happy:-)

Wow! What a fantastic recipe.
Me and my hubby love lime. I love making jam and never heard of this combo before. Thank you for the easy recipe to follow. I’ll definitely be making more, it was delicious!!

Yay Jen, so glad you like it, blueberries make such good jam and the lime just adds that “je ne sais quoi:”-)

I did double the recipe and it just longer to set. Perfection.

This was delicious! A unique jam at I’ve never seen it in stores, but absolutely wonderful flavor. I used blueberries we picked and froze last summer. Worked out well, and I’m excited to eat the rest of the jar haha! 😉 This is the second jam I’ve tried from your site, and it’s all really helped build my confidence about jam making. Thank you!

I grow blueberries and was looking for a jam recipe with a wow factor. I came across this recipe and gave it a try. I’m so glad I did. The resulting jam is delicious. You can taste both fruits equally. Amazing. I’ll certainly be making this jam again.

Hi B, thank you, we don’t can our jams in the UK, the sugar acts as the preservative and this jam will be safe to eat for many years but I always say it’s at it’s best in the first year. But provided it’s stored in a cool, dry, dark place I’ve heard of jam still being safe to eat after 20 years! The reason you would can a jam is if botulism is a concern not to make the jam shelf stable as this already is. I don’t know anything about that process but believe you need to refer to your jar instructions (or so I’m told).

This sounds lovely! We shall make this recipe tomorrow. We have several bushes…does this blueberry jam need canning in a water bath to allow it to pantry set for a year or more?

Super delicious and easy to make. We used our frozen blueberries we picked during the summer, made 1/4 pint jars, now can’t keep the grandbabies out of the jam ☺️❤️

Ooh, that does sound like an epic combination Anita, would love to try that. I started growing blueberries this year and the birds beat me to one bush and I had about 3 berries from the other. Pinning my hopes on next year as they are quite small.

This jam is especially nice in the centre of a courgette and lime cake, especially with a dollop of fresh cream, I have been awaiting this years blueberries to make my next batch and am ready to go, can’t wait

Made a batch yesterday, just sitting down to some on toast for breakfast. It’s beautiful, the flavours complement each other so well. I cut back on the sugar as the fresh blueberries were nice and sweet, and still managed to make it set somewhat. I love that it only makes 2 jars, just the right amount for our house. I’m looking forward to trying some of your other recipes.

Have just made this jam as I managed to pick up 2 kilos of blueberries from our local supermarket at a silly price due to being close to they sell by date.,so decided to try this as nothing to loose and I must say fantastic flavour and easy recipe. This is definitely going into my must make recipes for jams Thank you

Acidic soil (was what I meant with “sour” soil – I just didn’t know the English word for it) is perfect for blueberries – so try planting different blueberries next year.

Thanks, I think we must have acidic soil as Camellias and Rhododendrons do well here. Once I’ve mastered rhubarb which I started growing this year but won’t be able to harvest until next year, I might try and find room for some blueberry bushes:-)

I think you need more than one sort of blueberries and the plants demand sour soil if you want to succeed with growing your own blueberries

Thank you Mette, so glad you like the recipe and very envious of your blueberries. I had some small plants I got in the post once but they didn’t take off, perhaps it’s time to try again!

So delicious – and super easy – the blueberries in my garden in Denmark are ripening right now so this is not the last time I will use this recipe – maybe I will try with a little less sugar next time. Thank you for a great recipe!

Great Jan, glad you like the recipe. I only buy blueberries when I find a bargain as yes otherwise it works out very expensive. You really don’t need jam sugar as blueberries are naturally high in pectin and the lime juice aids the jelling plus there’s also pectin in the lime zest.

I find blueberries don’t have much flavour and they are quite expensive. Also used jam sugar to make sure of the set. It was absolutely delicious. You can really taste both the blueberries and the lime. Just made another batch.
Thanks Camilla, keep the recipes coming.

Sounds delicious Camilla. I reckon blueberries need something like zingy lime to give them a lift. I’ve just made a batch of plum jam with lime and it’s fabulous. The plums weren’t particularly flavoursome ones, so the lime worked really well.
