Grandma's
Choke Cherry
Jelly is Back!

To really experience history you have to taste it. Lot's of people say our Choke Cherry Jelly is just like their grandma used to make. As soon as you taste it you become a believer in what Joan Maestas of Mora, New Mexico has recreated.

After Grandma Clodovea Maestas died, the recipe for her famous jelly was considered lost forever. She made everything from scratch. A tradegy like this just shouldn't happen Joan thought; so she began to recreate Grandma Clodovea's recipe from methods she remembered. Joan's husband, Matt, had plenty of Choke Cherry Jelly to taste.   With a lot of patience and the same loving care Clodovea cooked with, Joan has brought Choke Cherry Jelly back for all to enjoy.
