Wash and peel the mangoes. Dice the mangoes into small pieces and set aside.
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the diced mangoes, raspberries, and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the fruit softens and starts to break down (about 5-7 minutes).
Use a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon to gently mash the fruit mixture, leaving some chunks for texture if desired.
Add the granulated sugar and lemon juice to the saucepan. Stir well to combine and dissolve the sugar.
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir frequently to prevent sticking or burning.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring often, until the mixture thickens to a jam-like consistency (about 20-25 minutes). To test the consistency, place a small spoonful of jam on a cold plate and refrigerate for 1-2 minutes. If it forms a gel-like surface and doesn’t run when tilted, it's ready.
Remove the jam from heat and let it cool slightly. Carefully transfer it to sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Seal the jars with sterilized lids.
Let the jam cool completely at room temperature before storing in the refrigerator. It can be refrigerated for up to 3 weeks or processed in a water bath for longer shelf life.
