Preparation steps
Rinse the applesand coarsely chop. Bring the apples and 1/4 l (approximately 8 ounces) of water to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
Line a fine strainer with cheesecloth. Place the apple mixture in the strainer, and drain thoroughly. Carefully squeeze the juice from the apple pieces, and let cool. You should have about 1/2 l (approximately 16 ounces) of juice.
Squeeze the juice from the oranges and lemons, and pass through a fine strainer. Weigh all the juices, and mix with an equal amount of the jam sugar, the citric acid, and the rinsed mint. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook for 1 minute, continuing to stir. Remove the mint, sweeten with the honey, and remove from the heat. Test the jelly (it shouldn't move when put on a plate and refrigerated briefly). If it runs, boil a few minutes longer.
Fill the prepared jars to the brim with the jelly. Remove any foam if necessary. Seal the jars, and turn upside down to cool.
