Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Jam: March 2025

A "Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Jams" sweets label with red and white stripes and the text on a yellow scroll.

Welcome, wizard rockers and friends, to Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Jam! We gather here to make and share creative projects with a different prompt every month. Before we get to the theme for March, let’s see what we’ve concocted last month.

February’s prompt was potions.

The Bookish Hufflepuff brewed up a collage, about which she says:

This month I’m focusing on the Neon Gardens Harry Potter popup in Chicago. They had a great potions display, as well as exciting elixirs (shots and drinks). I enjoyed the Butterbeer (top left) and the purple berry Sirius Smash (not pictured). I couldn’t swing it for this year, but next year if they do the popup again, my goal is to get them to include a wrock concert in the lineup.

Pictured are the Neon Gardens neon pizza slice logo, an array of potion ingredients in jars, a mug of a frothy amber drink, a cauldron, Celia pushing a trolley through a wall to Platform 9 3/4, and a drinks menu. Drinks include Expecto Patronum (Aguasol Blanco tequila, angostura bitters, peach schnapps, pineapple agave syrup, pineapple garnish), Fire Whiskey (Redemption rye whiskey, Velvet Falernum, apple cider, dried apple garnish), Dobby Is Free (apple pie vodka, apple cider, ginger beer, caramel drizzle, cinnamon stick), Golden Snitch shot (whiskey, mango puree), Vodka Kedava shot (triple berry vodka, Tippy Cow chocolate), Voldemalort shot (candy cane infused Malort), Butterbeer (vanilla vodka, butterscotch cream soda, whipped cream, butterscotch garnish), Rubeus Hagrid (black strap rum, coffee liqueur, Irish stout, chocolate bitters, chocolate Pocky garnish), and Elder Wand (Beefeater gin, sparkling rosé, elderflower liqueur, plum bitters, lemon juice, candy wand garnish).

The Galleon Guy made a wrock-themed birthday gift for The Bookish Hufflepuff: a water bottle with lyrics to a Hawthorn & Holly song, perfect for filling with an aguamenti spell. or perhaps holding a bit of liquid luck.

This month, I’m excited to say that I’m working with Hostwitch Bess of WZRD Radio Podcast to bring forward the joy in wizard rock. I hope some of these next few themes give you inspiration, starting with the theme for March: community.

Any and all media are welcome at the Every Flavour Jam, and nothing needs to be perfect, nor even complete. We’re here to create for the fun of it. I hope you’ll share something you make!
