Mint Jelly recipe, anyone?

[me&thegals]

Does anybody have a fabulous, tried-and-true recipe for mint jelly? I have a wonderful patch of chocolate mint and would love to try making jelly. I've had not-so-good jelly before and want to get a great recipe/variety this time. Thanks!

Mint Jelly

1 1/2 cups packed fresh mint leaves and stems
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 1/4 cups boiling water
1 drop green food color
3 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 (6 fluid ounce) container liquid pectin
DIRECTIONS
Rinse off the mint leaves, and place them into a large saucepan. Crush with a potato masher or the bottom of a jar or glass. Add water, and bring the mint to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes. Strain, and measure out 1 2/3 cups of the mint.
Place 1 2/3 cups mint into a saucepan. Stir in the lemon juice and food coloring. Mix in the sugar, and place the pan over high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Once the mixture is boiling, stir in the pectin. Boil the mixture for a full minute while stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and skim foam off the top using a large metal spoon. Transfer the mixture to hot sterile jars, and seal. Process any unsealed jars in a water bath.
