This Jam Gin Spritz cocktail made with strawberry jam could totally be a contender for the drink of the summer. It’s light, crisp, and uses things you’ll likely have on hand, especially the jam!

Picture yourself sipping on a gin spritz with a surprise twist: strawberry jam! It’s like summer in a glass—gin mixed with a bit of strawberry jam and a splash of sparkling water or prosecco. The jam adds a sweet depth that blends perfectly with the fizz, giving you a pink-colored drink that’s not just pretty but super tasty.

Maybe you’re enjoying it poolside, or perhaps it’s the perfect start to a lazy summer afternoon. Either way, it’s a drink that invites you to kick back, relax, and savor each moment. Garnished with a slice of fresh strawberry and an orange slice, it’s not just a cocktail; it’s a little celebration in a glass, bringing summer vibes no matter the season.

It’s fruity, fizzy, and totally refreshing—a sip that’ll make you smile and most likely want a second glass.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a jam that works best for this recipe?

Any flavor of jam will work well with this recipe, but you’ll need to use something that pairs well with orange (or omit the orange entirely). Personally, I love to use strawberry butter as the jam of choice because of its perfectly smooth, creamy consistency. But blueberry jam, raspberry jam, and cherry jam would all work well as substitutes.

Can this be made for more than one drink?

Of course! Simply multiply the amounts by the number of drinks needed, or make them one by one.

Does the jam have to be used?

You can use fresh strawberries instead of the jam, but make sure to muddle them in the glass first. You want the strawberries to be broken down so that once the cocktail is shaken, the liquids will be mixed with the flavors of the strawberry.
