A simple homemade jam made with fresh strawberries and sparkling rose elevates this pretty-in-pink cocktail.
If making your own jam isn’t in the cards, you might sub in high-quality store-bought strawberry jam.
Let stand for 1 hour, or cover and refrigerate overnight.

Cook the jam:
Transfer saucepan to a burner.
Bring to a boil over medium-high, stirring often and skimming foam off top with a large spoon.
Cool and store:
Remove from heat and pour into a medium bowl.
Let cool, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until room temperature, about 2 hours.
Transfer jam to a clean glass jar with a sealable lid.
Use immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 week or freeze.
Whisk until jam is dissolved and mixture is fully combined.
Garnish and serve:
Serve over ice (preferably crushed) in champagne flutes or highball glasses.
Serve each glass with a small spoon filled with Strawberry Rose Jam for stirring into cocktail.
Stir in the sparkling rose when ready to serve.
The jam can be made up to one week ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
