For a smoother jam, you can use an immersion blender to slightly break down the lingonberries after they've softened. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference, depending on the tartness of the lingonberries. Sterilize jars and lids by boiling them in water for 10 minutes before filling. If you don't have lingonberries, cranberries can be used as a substitute, although the flavor will be slightly different.
