Strawberry jam is a fast and fun recipe that a beginner can make and this recipe explains how you can round up a selection (or just a few) of optional add ins to add just before canning to customize your jam and make it your own.

One way to tell which jar is which is to use these fun, colored lids. You’ll know that the balsamic flavored jam has the red lid, and the one with minced jalapeño has a green lid.

If you came to this post for a recipe, and now you’re not so sure because this is a canning recipe, don’t worry! You can sign up for the Free Canning Basics Course and get a few easy lessons in your inbox!

This customizable strawberry jam is easy to make especially in wide mouth half pint jars. You’ll have a perfect serving of specially flavored jam to give or keep and the wide mouth makes the addition of the flavoring easy.

This would be a fun recipe to make with a group (see this post for a recipe for canning for a party!)
