I signed up for the year long challenge of canning something new each month. We will be given the ingredient for the month on the last Friday of the previous month. 
I didn't know where to find what this month's ingredient until today then I discovered that I just didn't scroll down far enough on Tiger's page. I will know better for next month. That being said, I had to scramble with ingredients on hand. I ended up doing an orange mango reduction that I plan to use as a lovely addition to my kefir smoothies. Having tasted the result, I wish that I ate pancakes. Just a side note, at first I didn't think the ginger made much of a difference but when the velvet liquid slip down my throat there was a pleasant warm tingle on the roof of my mouth that told me the ginger was there.
