Bring to a boil, turn down, and simmer berries for 5 to 10 minutes.

3
Allow to cool slightly, then pour through fine sieve type strainer and allow to drain overnight (this time can be shortened, but I love for it to strain a long time in order to get all of the juice out of the berries).

You should now have 3 3/4 cups juice (if necessary you can add up to 1/2 cup of water to give you a full 3 3/4 cups).

When the juice is at a full rolling boil, add the sugar quickly and stir constantly.
