Measure sugar or room temperature honey into a bowl. Thoroughly mix pectin powder into sweetener. Set aside.

Bring fruit mixture to a full boil. Add pectin-sugar mixture, stirring vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes to dissolve the pectin while the jam comes back up to a boil. Once the jam returns to a full boil, remove it from the heat.

Put filled jars in boiling water to cover. Bring water to a roiling boil for 8 minutes. Remove jars from water and allow to cool at room temperature. Check seals; lids should be sucked down. Use within a year.
