Brooklyn's Caribbean Festival Guide

On a sunny Labor Day Monday in Brooklyn, the sound of reggae music and the aroma of jerk chicken fill the air, signaling the start of the annual Caribbean Festival. As a first-timer, navigating the vibrant crowds and endless food options can be overwhelming, but with Sorrel City as your guide, you will be sipping on hand-bottled Jamaican sorrel in no time.

Getting Started

To make the most of your festival experience, start by exploring the various food vendors, each offering a taste of their Caribbean heritage. Be sure to try some traditional Jamaican dishes, such as curry goat or fried dumplings, and do not forget to wash it down with a refreshing bottle of Sorrel City's sorrel, available with a hint of rum or wine for added flavor.

As you wander through the festival grounds, take in the lively atmosphere and browse the numerous stalls selling handmade crafts and souvenirs. You can even start an order for a gallon of Sorrel City's signature sorrel to enjoy at home, perfect for sharing with friends and family or as a unique gift.

A Taste of Jamaica

According to Caribbean culinary tradition, sorrel is often associated with warm seasonal rituals and is traditionally believed to be a refreshing and revitalizing drink. Researchers have studied the nutritional benefits of hibiscus, the main ingredient in sorrel, and some people find that it provides a boost of vitamin C and antioxidants. At Sorrel City, we are proud to offer a range of sorrel options, from classic to rum-infused, all made with the finest ingredients and a passion for sharing Jamaican culture with our community.
