5 Unexpected (and Delicious) Ways to Use Mango Habanero Jam

If you've never experienced the magic of sweet-meets-heat in a jar, our Mango Habanero Jam is about to change your entertaining game. Here are five ways to put it to work.

1. The Star of Your Charcuterie Board

Mango Habanero is the jam that makes people stop mid-bite and ask "what IS that?" Pair it with a sharp aged cheddar or creamy brie, add some honey crackers and prosciutto, and you've got a board centerpiece that does all the talking. It's a staple in our wedding and event grazing builds for exactly this reason.

2. A Glaze for Grilled Chicken or Salmon

Brush it on during the last few minutes of grilling for a caramelized, sticky glaze with just enough kick. Mix with a splash of soy sauce and a squeeze of lime for a quick marinade that tastes like you spent hours on it.

3. A Cocktail Mixer That Surprises Everyone

Stir a spoonful into a margarita, a mezcal sour, or even a simple sparkling water with lime. The habanero heat blooms beautifully in citrus-forward drinks. Your guests will be asking for the recipe all night.

4. A Dipping Sauce in Seconds

Mix equal parts Mango Habanero Jam with cream cheese for an instant dip that works with everything from pita chips to chicken tenders. It takes 30 seconds and tastes like you planned it.

5. A Wedding Favor That Actually Gets Used

Our Favors Jam collection is perfect for weddings and events — and Mango Habanero is consistently one of the most-requested flavors. Guests take it home, use it, and remember your day every time they open the jar.
