Not to be confused with cinnamon sticks, Mauby Bark, also a tree-based bark is usually boiled in water and consumed as a beverage popular in the Caribbean. _ Recipes usually include other ingredients as well, spices such as aniseed being very common. Mauby is often bought as a pre-made syrup and then mixed with water to the consumer's taste, but many make it themselves at home or purchase it from grocers. Its taste is initially sweet, somewhat like root beer, but changes to a prolonged, but not astringent bitter aftertaste _ Available all year round with FREE SHIPPING!

#Repost @simplycaribbean1 ・・・ It's always the time for drinking Sorrel in my book! I just don't wait for Christmas, it's always Sorrel season in our house! #yaynay #sorrel . . Sorrel— belongs to the hibiscus family and is a short shrub that bears flowers quite like okra and hibiscus. Once the flower falls off, the calyx at the base of the flower swells and thickens and grows to cover the seed capsule. This cover is what we know as sorrel and is used in the delicious drink of the same name. – trinidad guardian . . The sorrel flower is in full bloom at Christmas time in Trinidad and most of the Caribbean so that’s one of the reasons it’s traditionally considered a holiday drink. But with dried sorrel being manufactured and exported, you can have this delicious drink all year round. The flavor of Sorrel is like cranberry and raspberry with a hint of pineapple . . 😱Omg!

Making Sorrel Drink (Non Alcoholic)

It has been a while since I had #sorrel drink.

Sorrel has "thick outer red sepals that are used for culinary and medicinal purposes. ... It can be brewed to make tea, while jam and jellies, sauces, syrups, juices, drink and wine can be made from it."
