Peel the garlic cloves and finely chop or mince them using a knife or garlic press.
In a medium saucepan, combine the finely minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes to infuse the liquid with the garlic flavor.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the garlic solids. Return the strained liquid to the saucepan.
Add the granulated sugar, powdered pectin, butter, and salt to the saucepan with the garlic-infused liquid. Stir well to ensure the ingredients are fully combined.
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
Test the consistency of the jelly by placing a small amount on a chilled plate. If it wrinkles when pushed, itβs ready. If not, return the mixture to a boil for another 1-2 minutes and retest.
Pour the hot garlic jelly into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at the top. Wipe the rims clean, place the lids on, and seal tightly.
Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure proper sealing. Allow the jars to cool completely at room temperature before storing.
Store the sealed jars in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year. Refrigerate once opened and consume within 1 month.
