My cursory skim of the internet did indeed indicate that that was the etymology!
FWIW jostaberries are also basically unheard of here -- they don't transport particularly well and you basically only seem to find out about them (even if you're a family that's been growing Ribes more generally for generations!) if you... get an alloment? They appear to be specifically part of the allotment subculture.
And "jelly" is actually a term we use to refer to jams-but-juice-only as well as to the gelatine thing!
............... yeah okay streusel is one of the ones where I'm sufficiently German-first-language that I just don't have any idea where to even start working out what the anglo pronunciation would be.
