I'm glad to see it's enjoyed around the world, no matter the country or color, if somethings good and healthy, it's good and healthy and I really do wish this beautiful flower gets more spotlight
Nice to see Devon. He is an amazing chef and knows how to make any type of natural drink. Kind man. Say hi to Mokko and his clan. Happy holidays to all. Stay safe.
It was many years ago i discovered your channel. It gives me nostalgia watching your earliest videos. So good to see fresh videos here. I'm not saying that you havent been here all the time but i recently found back to this channel and i still love it. I found out about Jamaican Sorrel a few weeks ago, tried it (ofc only with dried flowers here in germany) and it was awesome. Coincidentally you just put up a video about it. Cheers from Overseas!
FYI. Like many popular plants grown in the Caribbean region, sorrel has its origins in West Africa. Known as Roselle, or less by its scientific name 'Hibiscus sabdariffa', sorrel is a species of the Hibiscus family. It bears annually, maturing in about six months and growing to about 7-8 ft.
Sorrel is a traditional drink during Christmas time in all of the Caribbean not just Jamaica. Black fruit cake is a traditional cake during Christmas time not only in Jamaica but in all of the Caribbean.
Happy holidays & merry vibrations Ras Kitchen, bless up! Thank you for keeping it real sharing the culture and love of Jamaica, can’t wait till God blesses me with a chance to go and visit. One love!
As a Mexican living in the Mexican Caribbean (cancun) I've met a lot of jamaicans and when I recommend them agua de jamaica, they don't know what it is until they try and they'll say it taste like sorrel. So yes. I've come to conclusion that "agua de jamaica" is named after this Jamaican drink only without the pepper and ginger. (Hibiscus only).
There's also white sorrell. Some yrs ago i read an article that student scientists from UWI did an experiment using white sorrel to treat liver cancer.
He has this very cool personality. I love how he made the sorrel, that's how I make mine but I add some cinnamon leaves at times. Every Jamaican home has this drink during the Christmas season.
It looks so tasty, I got another fruit to add to my shopping list. Hopefully I can find some. Thanks for posting Merry Christmas and Happy holidays to all.
Mmmm mm that Sorrell drink looked sooo good Made it ma self but like you Matthew only the dried type,will definitely add Alspice to mine this Yr.!! Sending Christmas greetings to all in da yard an to our new master chef Devon Blessings an raspek 🙏 Keep the videos coming Matthew 👊🇯🇲🇬🇧
I'm sorry you misunderstood me I take sorrel also kno as hibiscus. And add pimento, ginger,orange peel and cinnamon. When I said I make sorrel with pimento I ment as an ingredient to flavor the sorrel. Merry Christmas
So lovely to watch you making up a fresh batch of sorrel. I’m making my own right now for my friend’s and family right. One love Devon. I hope you’ll be around in February because I’m coming back to my favourite place in St Thomas. Merry Christmas and happy new year!
I like your recipe for sorrel....it is very simple to make. I add cinnamon sticks to mine, unfortunately fresh sorrel is not always available so I use dried sorrel,
I make Sorrell. I pound my all spice seeds a little to open it up. I soak my sorrell in refrigerator for quite some time. I boil my water and add Sorrell and spices. It delicious. I don't boil the Sorrell. I add to hot water.I add Anise spice sometimes. Oranges sliced I add them to sometimees cinnamon. Limes are good but if you over do it it makes it tart.
Great episode Matt! Our holiday customs in Jamaica must be really interesting to you. Keep showing all the beauty of Jamaica. Bless up! Happy Holidays!!
Merry Christmas Matthew! That WAS a special video. Man I'm tingling 😂 Boiled water too! That's a treat. I always found that when I cooled boiling water, with no sediment, it was in a new league on it's own. I'd call it a treat. I'm going to boil some water right now and cool it. Pass the spliff Matthew 😂 I got THE BEST water! But actually I think the real best water would have minerals or vitamins in it but still. It's detectable and clearly next level. You feel cleaner for sure.
I like sorrel drink but not with pimento (allspice) or cloves, just some red label wine added to it! The lack of pipe water for days is something that I could never get used to again. I remember it happening quite frequently as a child and it was such an inconvenience. Rasta Devon is so chill he just takes everything in stride- good vibes!
Bless everyone who grows this plant in their yard. You will see people tell you to let the pods dry on the plant for seeds and I think that is a good Idea but here is another one to go with you through the season. When you harvest your calyxys save your green seed pods and just set them somewhere dry and cool for like 1-2 months and they will naturally dry and crack open and low and behold your seeds aren't white anymore but brown and good to plant.
Sorrel is very popular throughout tue Caribbean. I was surprised to hear Mexican friends call it "flor de Jamaica". Don't even know Jamaicans who call it that.
I was born and raised in the UK, but have a Jamaican father, we grew up drinking Sorrel all year round, not just at Christmas time. I now live in Mexico where flor de Jamaica is just as popular, but here they use the petals, whereas Jamaica use the buds, as good as it tastes here in Mexico, the Jamaican version tastes even better. 🇯🇲🇲🇽
sorrel drink and agua jamaica are completely different drinks to me. i live in NYC and when i eat at trini or jamaican spots sorrel is so good. agua jamaica is okay but it just seems different to me and i can't differentiate why lol
I think the agua de Jamaica is not as concentrated as the drink in Jamaica. The former is an extremely diluted version of the latter and does not have pimento, etc., in it.
I know what you mean, I bought a bottle of the agua Jamaica once and it tasted like sugar and water because the flavor was just not there. I was very disappointed with it.

This is bissap juice in Sénégal West Africa, one of best drinken every day.
Here in Brasil we call it " hibisco " 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
This is because its from the hibiscus plant, its a blessing to see these beautiful plants in beautiful places
@Miles Doyle Larry Wheels also bled for us. On more than one occasion. He wasn’t carrying nearly the weight that Jesus Christ did, but still
VERY popular drink in México
This channel is just vibessss

I've always use pimento berry to make sorrel. Some use cloves or both. I personally just put in pimento berry.
I'm sorry you misunderstood me I take sorrel also kno as hibiscus. And add pimento, ginger,orange peel and cinnamon. When I said I make sorrel with pimento I ment as an ingredient to flavor the sorrel. Merry Christmas

That's interesting. Thanks for sharing. Bless up 🙌
Obviously two different places two different names. Like most countries eat the samething but have different names for it.
I pay sooo much for the dried stuff here in Canada . It's Hibiscus. Great for a cold with honey
For sure!
I love watching ras kitchen videos
So happy you like them!
When its dry the flavor gets stronger.
I was between picking Sorrell and watching this. Haha
Merry Ras Christmas
My Canadian-Guyanese friends turned me on to sorrel many Christmas' ago.
My mom always makes it. I love me some sorrol
I’ve got my sorrel in the fridge now, it’s a Christmas drink for Trinis too!
Enjoy!

Nice video again. Merry Christmas.
Thanks, you too!
What he made is sorrel juice usually we always ferment it so it turns into a type of wine. Only difference it’s called sorrel drink?
Hey Matthew snow storm in Toronto at this time
Jamaica is actually hibiscus 🌺 might be related idk but ves very similar and of course inspiration from jahhmaiiicaaa!
Agua de Jamaica ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇲🇽
Yes iyah
A jamiacan always taught me that one Dumpling on your plate is better than none. Hear me.
I need that!!
Here we call it Aguita de Jamaica!
That drink looks really gd, add some Bacardi white rum to er, da bessss
sorrel drink and agua jamaica are completely different drinks to me. i live in NYC and when i eat at trini or jamaican spots sorrel is so good. agua jamaica is okay but it just seems different to me and i can't differentiate why lol
Spanish people dont use spice like pimento and cinnamon they just use the plant
@@WarrensWorld112 next time i have the opportunity i will remember to compare them both
Pimento made it taste quite different!
I think the agua de Jamaica is not as concentrated as the drink in Jamaica. The former is an extremely diluted version of the latter and does not have pimento, etc., in it.
I know what you mean, I bought a bottle of the agua Jamaica once and it tasted like sugar and water because the flavor was just not there. I was very disappointed with it.
Rastas should eat more greens, they are lacking in copper and that's why you see the grey hairy but smooth skin. Jah Rastafari
just wondering would you end up having a family and raising them in jamaica ? or do you just fly n and fly out for content
Making Sorrel now
Looks like ginger beer with surill
we call it bissap
