Strawberries, particularly perfectly ripe, just picked berries, often have subtle floral undertones. By adding flower-infused syrup to the strawberry juice base, we play up that floral characteristic, giving this flower-infused jelly a unique and complex flavor that tastes just like spring feels.
Made with fresh elderflowers, ripe strawberries and classic pectin for a ruby red, crystalline jelly with a subtle undertone of floral elderflower flavor. This small-batch recipe can be water-bath canned for shelf-stable storage, or refrigerated or frozen instead if you prefer.
Also included in this recipe is a variation for strawberry rose petal jelly using dried rose petals (or any other edible flower, really).

I have so many strawberry jam recipes. I mean, how many is too many? Asking for a friend…
Without fail, every year I end up picking at least two baskets worth at the pick-your-own farm near us. I just can’t resist the lure of these springtime gems.
In lieu of yet another strawberry jam recipe, I thought I’d mix it up a little bit. Hence: strawberry jelly! The main difference between jelly and jam is strained fruit juice versus whole fruit (more on that below). If a smooth, even texture is your jam—excuse me, your jelly—then this recipe is for you.
