Enjoy the combination of aromatic blackberries and fragrant basil in this sweet jam with a light citrusy hint of orange. This jam is easy to make, but without preserving it, it only lasts for three days, so make it in small batches. It's perfect with toast, pancakes, porridge, cheese platters, and even roast lamb.
