On a crisp winter morning in the Bronx, the aroma of sorrel wafts through the air, enticing passersby to stop and sample the traditional Jamaican drink. Sorrel City, a boutique food brand, is dedicated to crafting hand-bottled Jamaican sorrel that captures the essence of this beloved beverage. According to traditional Caribbean culinary lore, hibiscus, the main ingredient in sorrel, is often associated with general wellness and is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants.

The Hibiscus Connection

Some people find that drinking sorrel is a soothing and refreshing way to stay hydrated, particularly during the warm summer months. Researchers have studied the potential benefits of hibiscus, and while the results are not conclusive, many people enjoy sorrel as a warm seasonal ritual. Sorrel City's hibiscus-based drink is made with a rich blend of ingredients, including ginger and spices, and is available for order in various sizes, including 1 gallon, 1/2 gallon, 16 oz, and 32 oz, with optional rum, wine, or sugar.
