Personally I think it sounds :sick: but each to their own.....

I'm a relative newbie to the hobby but if I was to try something like that the 1st thing I would do is read the ingredients of the jam. I suspect that you'll find preservatives and/or other additives in there which would inhibit the yeast from fermenting. After all if wild yeasts got in there and started fermenting the sugars it could end up being a boozey jam :grin:
