Steps:
- Combine plums, sugar, and water in a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Lower heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until mixture has thickened to desired consistency, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Meanwhile, inspect five 8-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jelly is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
- Remove jelly from the heat and skim off any heavy foam. Ladle hot jelly into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on finger-tight.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 15 minutes. Remove jars from water bath and tighten rings.
- Place jars on a towel to cool until lids pop. Press lids to confirm the seal.

- Next cut the plums in half around the pit and place in a large sauce pan over medium high heat. Be sure to wear old clothes, since Sugar Tree Plums are very juicy. Place all the plums in the pan with the skins and pits to cook. No extra water is needed, since there is enough juice in these plums.
- Once the plums start to boil turn down the heat to medium low and cover with a lid. Let this simmer for about an hour. Stirring every 10 -15 mins. You will notice the plums start to break down more and more as they cook. It starts to look like plum soup.
- After the plums have been cooking for about an hour, strain them in a colander and save the juice in a large bowl. If you have a jelly bag you can use that. I don't have one yet, but I really want one. So I just make do instead. After this first batch is strained. Strain again through cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer to remove all the pulp. You should have about 4 cups.
