Do you think this can be canned?

New Orleans, LA(Zone 9a)

I have quite a few satsuma trees and have been looking for recipes to can them as either a jam or a preserve. I came across this recipe on the Sunkist website and it sounds like what I've been looking for. However, there are no instructions for water bath or pressure canning, it only says to freeze. Do you think this can be canned?

The flavor of fresh oranges comes through in this Easy Fresh Orange Jam, it can also be frozen for longer storage.
