Looking for a fun way to bring a burst of flavor to your cocktails? Jam is the answer! With its vibrant colors and sweet-tart notes, jam can instantly elevate your drink—and you probably already have some in your pantry. Here are three jam-infused cocktails you’ll want to make on repeat.

1. Blackberry Gin Fizz

This refreshing, bubbly cocktail is perfect for spring or summer. Simply mix 1 tablespoon of blackberry jam, 2 oz gin, and 0.5 oz lemon juice. Shake everything (except soda water) with ice, strain into a glass, and top with soda water. Tip: Garnish with fresh blackberries and a sprig of mint to make it pop.

2. Apricot Margarita

Give your margarita a fruity twist with apricot jam. Shake 1 tablespoon apricot jam, 2 oz tequila, and 0.5 oz lime juice with ice. Serve it in a chili-salt rimmed glass for a spicy edge that balances the sweetness. Suggestion: Add a slice of jalapeño for a little extra heat.

3. Strawberry Daiquiri

A classic gets a jammy upgrade with strawberry jam. Shake 1 tablespoon strawberry jam, 2 oz white rum, and 0.5 oz lime juice with ice. Strain into a chilled glass and enjoy! Idea: Top it off with a fresh strawberry and lime wedge for a tropical vibe.
