Author Notes
My Cherry Jam Margarita came about thanks to an idea from one of the best bartenders in Stuttgart, Germany. We all think of using various ingredients, so why not use that jar of jelly or jam in your frig. If you don't have a cherry jam, then use a berry jam of some sort. If you end up doing that, you might want to adjust the sweetness, since a berry jam will be sweeter than cherry. Cheers! —Jacob K Thomas
