Not what I was expecting. I doubled the amount of garlic and still didn't get as much garlic as I thought would be there. Vinegar is a bit overpowering.

This is amazing with crackers and cream cheese... I added about 1/2 cup chopped garlic to add texture and just after adding the pectin I added whole jalapeno peppers one for each jar made. I hope it has a bit of heat when I open for the next cocktail party!

I love garlic, and thought this would be interesting to try; unfortuantely it wasn't all I had hoped. Could be personal taste, but I found the garlic/sugar/vinegar mixture ended up tasting just like it sounds, and the flavours didn't blend nicely. I now have 12 jars of garlic jelly, and don't know what to do with it...

I made this recipe and gave it out to a few friends. Those who love garlic will love this. I have used it on pork and baked chicken. Next time, I will use roasted garlic.

I had planned to give this as Christmas gifts. I love garlic and thought this would be delicious. It didn't live up to my expectations and I ended up making jalapeno jelly instead.

Different, but good. Smells like garlic & vinegar a lot. Haven't tasted it yet, but I'm sure it will be a great marinade.

Mine came out horrible! I was so excited about making this recipe. About 1 minute after adding the pectin, the mixture turned green! I mean green as the grass green. I followed the rest of the recipe thinking that maybe cooking the mixture would remove the color. I don't know how it tastes. It may just taste wonderful, but I haven't been brave enough to try it (the color is really a turn off). The other reviews seem so good, I maybe just goofed (although the recipe seems pretty goof proof).

What a unique recipe! We love garlic, so like the other reviews suggested, I added more garlic. Also I made a batch using roasted garlic and substituted some of the vinegar with basamic vinegar. Yum. Very easy recipe to work with.
