Ingredients:  
1 lb. fresh raspberries (I'm sure frozen would work as well)
1 lb. white-fleshed peaches
1 1/4 lb. sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
Directions:
Directions:
Blanch peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds. Put immediately in ice water. When cool enough to handle, remove skins. Dice peaches into pieces similar in size to raspberries. Place peaches, raspberries, and sugar in a large pot. Stir together well. Cover and allow to sit at room temperature for at least 8 (but up to 12) hours.

At the end of this time, all sugar will be dissolved and the mixture will look very liquid. Add lemon juice and bring to a boil, over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Turn heat off and cover mixture. Allow to sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours.

After 24 hours, return to stove and heat over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches 220 degrees on a candy thermometer (*important note* this is the jell point for preserves being made at sea level. For every thousand feet you live above sea level, subtract 2 degrees. For example, I live in Montana and our altitude is almost 4000 feet above sea level. So my jell point is 212 degrees.) Decant jam into hot canning jars and process in a boiling water bath for 10 min.
