Thank you for everything learned In this website, congratulations for your hard work

I love this content! Consumption of healthy delicious food, drinks, and exercise habits, are key to healthy living. 💕

I did try making the sorrel drink recipe. However, my Jamaican and Trinidadian friends friends living in Bermuda suggested that in addition to your recipe I should add fresh spice leaves, lemon grass, sugar apple leaves , morengo (sp) leaves, etc.  This gave it a robust kick and a medicinal touch.  No alcohol.  Served in small quantities.  It was highly favored by my West Indian and Indian friends.    I also made the Jamaican fruit cake recipe and it was loved by all who tasted it.
Thank you for your alternative vegan recipes which taste great so far!

Sorrel a wonderful spice infused Caribbean beverage that is consumed during Christmas and throughout the new year period. My take on this festive drink has sweetened to be low GI and non alcoholic making it suitable for drivers or children.

In a large pot bring the water to the boil.

Reduce the heat to medium and add your ginger and spices - cloves and pimento berries (allspice) followed by the orange peel.

After 5 minutes add the sorrel and stir.

Simmer on low-medium heat for 10 minutes.

Remove the pot from the stove, cover leave to steep for 2-4 hours or preferably overnight (recommended)

Strain and discard the excess sorrel, peel and spices

Sweeten to taste (add rum or rum flavouring now) and serve

Add all of the ingredients (excluding your sweetener) to your crock pot.

Slow cooker version
