American Spoon’s Holiday Jam

Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | Nov. 8, 2025

’Tis the season for nostalgic eats, and our latest jam is, well, jam! Specifically, American Spoon’s cult favorite Holiday Jam, which just dropped for the festive season. Brimming with plump pieces of whole fruit, this dazzling gem—made with farm-grown Michigan cherries, cranberries, figs, ruby port, brandy, orange zest, cinnamon, star anise, vanilla, and clove—preserves the magic (and juicy pucker) of summer sour cherries throughout the long winter months. Blended with warm baking spice notes and zesty citrus, it makes anything merry and bright. Enjoy a heaping spoonful with melted brie, on a leftover turkey sandwich, or straight from the jar—this spreadable gift just keeps on giving! Stock up on holiday joy and jam ($15.95) at spoon.com or at American Spoon’s Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and Traverse City shops!
