Clover Jelly
Clover jelly has a unique fruity flavor that changes based on the clover flowers' color. Try red clover for a plum taste or white for a tropical pineapple flavor. If you have crimson clover, you can even make a jelly that tastes almost exactly like red currant. And they all have wonderful, sweet floral undertones, too!
