In a medium saucepan, combine the powdered pectin and water. Stir well to dissolve the pectin completely.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly while bringing the mixture to a boil.
Once the pectin mixture has boiled, carefully add the fresh grape juice and sugar-free sweetener to the saucepan.
Stir the mixture continuously and bring it to a rolling boil. Allow it to boil for 1-2 minutes while stirring to ensure everything is fully combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly skim off any foam that has formed on top of the jelly mixture using a spoon.
Pour the hot jelly mixture into sterilized glass jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top.
Secure the lids on the jars. If canning for long-term storage, process the jars in a hot water bath for 10 minutes. For short-term use, allow the jars to cool to room temperature before refrigerating.
Let the jelly set for 12-24 hours before opening. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or in the freezer for longer storage.
