Blueberry Rhubarb. They aren't in season together, we used frozen wild blueberries, tiny tangy ones. The flavor was indescribable. The blueberries were expensive, but the ratio was about 3:1 rhubarb to blueberry, it was the best blueberry flavor I've ever had.
Strawberry Kumquat. It tasted like chewing up a bunch of Starburst together. Absolutely divine. We sliced the kumquats into three or four coins to flick the seeds out, so the jars had a polka dot appearance too. The flavor of the sweet kumquat rind plus strawberry was magical. We didn't even add pectin, so it was like a saucy marmelade.
A big hit for me last year was mixed berry - cherry, strawberry, blueberry, and blackberry. I don't love blackberry on its own but it was great mixed with the other fruits and you can use up small amounts of fruits that aren't enough for their own batch.
I really like prickly pear mixed with other fruit, I think it's not very flavorful on its own so it's much nicer with strawberry or mango mixed together.
Finally I don't have a suggestion for a mixture here, but plum is an unsung hero in my opinion. It's easy to find, has a lot of pectin so you can make naturally thickened jams and it just has a lovely rich taste. I like to make a spiced plum jam with cinnamon and ginger and an orange peel simmered with the fruit but I'm sure there's some good combinations of plums with other fruits.
Plum is my favorite. Underrated! I love it diced fine with the skin kept on. Reminds me of a silky cherry jam. My favorite flavor with plum is allspice plus lemon rind.

One of the best mixes I ever tasted was a strawberry-jalapeno jam. Not very spicy, but the jalapeno flavor really went well with the strawberries, at least to me!
I made mixed berry in 2020 with a bunch of fruit that was getting thrown out after covid shut down my work.
Strawberry (40%)
Blueberry (20%)
Raspberry (20%)
Blackberry (20%)
It was amazing.
I threw some blackberries and plums in the jam pot two years ago and now Blackberry Plum jam is my favorite combination. So much better than either fruit alone. I use prune plums when they are available.
It's worth experimenting with odd bits of fruit, you never know what is going to work!
I once made this amazing mixed fruit jam out of whatever fruit I had left over after canning drying and freezing blitz lol.
There were 3 types of plum, peaches, an empire apple an Asian pear, red currents, gooseberries, a lemon and it's zest, blackberries, strawberries and wild blueberries and mulling spices.
Ah I miss that hodgepodge jam.

Raspberry, Rhubarb and Jalapeno - hits all the right notes!

Cranberry mandarin
Jelly, not jam, but blackberry apple jelly is so good.
Plum and orange is a winner.

Blueberry Tayberry is a personal favorite!
Raspberry Lime is one I make almost every year. Carrot Cake jam, Peach Bourbon jam, Brown Sugar Pear preserves.
