Default Elderflower Jelly


I have large clusters of elderflowers soaking in water for an infusion
to make elderflower jelly.

Does anyone have experience making this? The recipes I have found
online were British and their "jelly" is generally gelatin, for dessert.

I have general directions from a lovely German man I met in Passau at a
jam shop a few years ago, but they call for "jam sugar" which contains
pectin. I have pectin and sugar but no idea what proportion to use.

Does anyone here have experience with using flowers for jelly?
