Makes just under 1 quart.

2 lb damson plums, pitted and cut in half 1 cup honey or mixed honey and pure maple syrup ¼ cup finely grated apple, raw and unpeeled

In a large pot, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring frequently. When it becomes soupy, increase heat and bring to a full boil.

Stir slowly as it cooks for 15 to 20 minutes. It will thicken and darken. Try to get it up to 220° F. (Higher elevations will not get the temperature up that high, so do your best.)

Pour into prepared canning jars, giving at least ¼ inch of headspace. Seal and process for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath, or 20 minutes at high elevation.

To make 1 pint:

1 lb of apples ¼ lb of plums, with the pits removed

Run the apples through a juicer.

Put the plums in a blender with a bit of the apple juice, and blend until as liquefied as possible. Stir into the apple juice.

Squeeze the juice through a cloth bag to strain. (Squeeze into a bowl or serving vessel).

Serve chilled.

You can use what is called a jelly bag, or cheesecloth. What I find works the best is just to make a large, rectangular bag with cotton muslin or fine linen. It's cheap and reusable, you can make it as big or small as you need, and works much better than cheesecloth, which is too loose of a weave.
