Reader Reviews
There are three online retailers for Ball brand canning jars. They all charge shipping so that the jars cost at least $2.50 each. Leifheit jars are the only ones sold by Amazon. These are squat and good for pickled food instead of for sweet tea. The shape does make it easier to hold.
