Hi, Kelly! I would recommend that you use Pomona’s Pectin rather than the conventional pectins if using honey. The Pomona’s Pectin is flexible and independent of sweetener for its setting up. I have made pear, blackberry, strawberry and apricot jams with Pomona’s and sweetening with alternative sweeteners such as honey and/or fruit juice concentrate. They all set up well. You may need to make a small batch in order to test. Every recipe jams turns out a little different for me, so testing is very helpful. Hope this helps!
