Answer 2

I don't know if brambles are the same as blackberries, but I made some blackberry jelly yesterday. If you put in a few slightly underripe berries, the pectin in them helps it set up. I measure the blackberry juice, add an equal amount of sugar, then bring it to a boil. After it reaches boiling point, I turn it to a medium heat and cook for about 15 minutes. This always works for me.
