Add the peppers, vinegar, and sugar to a large saucepan with high sides (the jelly will foam up so you don't want it to spill over).
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then boil for 6 minutes while stirring constantly.
Add the pectin. This is where your jelly will foam up so please be careful. Keep boiling while stirring for another 3 minutes, then turn off the heat and skim off the foam using a spoon.
Immediately transfer the jelly into the sterilized jars and seal them with their sterilized lids.
Fill a large pot with water and place it over high heat. Place the sealed jars into the pot and bring the water to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, then remove the jars from the water and allow them to cool down to room temperature. Store the sealed jars in a cool, dark, dry space (between 50 F - 70 F) for up to a year. Once opened, store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
