Luv watching your show. I met a guy a year ago. He's from montego bay Jamaica. I ran across a few shows but yours the best. An I love your style of cooking I can follow you because you make it so simple an easy. Thanks so much an keep posting
Yes Debbie God bless you I have mastered the sorrel drink making thanks to you stay blessed u remind me of my aunty, mother and all the wonderful Jamaican women who love the kitchen and know how fi do it!
Wow!! Just like my Jamaican mother used to make it, except in the UK she used cinnamon bark and cloves. I love my sorrel and I drink this almost every day (alcohol free). I sweeten it with Agave syrup which is lower on the glycaemic index than sugar. Agave does not spike the blood like sugar but it is calorific, however, it is a better alternative for blood sugar. It is great for boosting the immune system as it is high in antioxidants and vitamin C, very good for the colder months here in England to protect against colds and viruses, but equally as good chilled as a refreshing drink in the warmer months. It is also known to control high blood pressure and a client of mine remarked how it has helped him tremendously control his blood sugar levels. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe with the world. You make it look so good! Wish I was there to taste it with you. Have a blessed day. Carol Organic x
@@ringmaster7688 bro thank you for that info 🔥💯✨🙏🏾 I need iron i get cold very easily & joke about being anemic from time to time but I dont think my body takes kindly to it so i appreciate the solution, blessings to you & yours
I am so happy to have found your channel. I am growing the roselle this year and I remember drinking Sorrel when I was in Jamaica, years ago. I lived there with a family in Hopewell for several months. The food and people are amazing and I have always wanted to go back.
I MISS MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER'S SORRELL!!! She used to add fresh grated ginger and white sugar. Depending on the occasion, she would add a "hint" of white rum for some kick. She showed me how to make it...I see a trip to the store in the morning for dried sorrell MUCH RESPECT...MANNERS AND BLESSUP MISS DEB!!!
Love all the different color pots hmmm hmmm good think Bill gonna cook chicken soup today because that’s all i can have right now so hope i remember to tell him to take out some of the stock for me and I’ll put in in fridge and will make it thanks again 🙏🏿🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️🤗😘🥰😍💐🇯🇲🇺🇸
Hi Debbie! My grandmother (from St. Mary) and I love your videos. When she was in better health, she used to make a drink using pineapple skins (not sure of the name) but now since she has dementia her mind is not good and she has trouble giving me a proper recipe. I was wondering if you could do a video for us? Thanks for all your incredible work!
Even if mi never believe seh u was Jamaican, how yo beat the ginger alone convince me lol. bless up urself all when yo sick yo still put out an effort thanks alot
We're lucky here on the small island, they sell it fresh and whole with the seeds like you have it there and dried. I grew some last year from some fresh one I bought the previous year and was lucky to get a good harvest so I froze some. Its lovely to enjoy sorrel drink all year round esp when friends visit from overseas.
Hi Deb I love your videos and traditional recipes. I can’t get many ingredients here in Sydney Australia. So I vacariously enjoy them through the videos
For years I have brought it to the boil and let it steep overnight or 24 hours and all my relatives do the same as me. Would be helpful to know why you shouldn't boil it.
Cuyaah Miss Debbie. Yu teach me sumting tidday. Me a tek time Peel and slice di ginger. Two twos Miss Debbie jus beat it and dun 🤣 by the way. Yu sorrel and ginger will cure yu voice kwik time. Bless up
i had fresh sorrel bud and had it in the fridge for a week not thinking it would go bad...I don't know why i thought that. I guess i'll go back to the dried one. But i have followed your directions for a few years and it works great.
I couldn’t find the fresh sorrel this year so I used the dried one. I spiced mine with: root ginger cinnamon stick whole cloves and/or dried pimento seeds fresh orange peel (didn’t have time to dry it), and a fistful of uncooked rice. I avoid powdered spices. I introduced the sorrel drink to some of my foreign clients and it was fun listening to them trying to decipher the spices in it. The sorrel was the drink of the night.
Debbie, I've had some dried Karkady -- same as Jamaican sorrel -- from the middle east for about five years now. Do you think it should still be good for making this drink?
@@diegogeneral1217 I'm in the state and the dry one that they have here when I wash it and then put it in the hot water and let it sit for few hours and when I going to stain it I realize that its get soft and mushy
LIFE AS GAIL Hi can this plant berry be bought in Canada??I am looking for very healthy tea or drink that will heal your body. If you have any recipes..Would love to have som of your recipes to heal your body..Thank you.
Lord Escanor, That’s right. I remember my granny drawing, sweetening and bottling sorrel like a week before Christmas, and it was not refrigerated. It would become fermented and it was delicious!

In Somalia/Kenya they call it KarrKahDirrr

Hi Kobe thanks for helping mommy you’re a wonderful daughter 🙏🏿🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍😘😘🥰😍🌷🤗🇯🇲🇺🇸
How much water is used with the dried sorrel? Just fill to the top?
Yes just fill to the top the same was you see her do it
You are such a Good Teacher! :D
She is great - the real thing!! ❤
Happy new year mami from aileen good bless you
First time commenting. I like how u beat the ginger like a real Jamaican country girl lol
I plant my own and i boil, what's the difference, love it refreshing without all the leaves,ginger sugar and a taste of rum,sometimes
I boil mine too...comes out wonderful
I love how u beat that ginger! Lol Do u add sugar?
bless only when sweetening
Hi Miss Debbie! The reason u are a success is because u are real. U don't pretend and people love that. Bless up!
Do you steep dry sorrel the same way or should you boil it?
You can steep it dry... but it takes a long time.
the same way and the dried one is even nicer
How do you preserve the sorrel from spoiling so soon?
Add long grain rice... keep in a cool place
Freeze it
Great video thanks !!! Debbie send me some seeds ❤❤❤❤
Why shouldn't we boil the sorrel fruit?
Thanks for the tips miss Deb's cos mi boil it for like an hour lol.
Same so mi jus done do🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
She say don't boil it just boil the water
Is the first I'm hearing of how to prepare sorrel so I always buy on my own and boil it.
@@fishchicken4188 I made mine yesterday just the way this video directed, and I can tell you it turned out soo good very dark and rich.
For years I have brought it to the boil and let it steep overnight or 24 hours and all my relatives do the same as me.
Would be helpful to know why you shouldn't boil it.
Cuyaah Miss Debbie. Yu teach me sumting tidday. Me a tek time Peel and slice di ginger. Two twos Miss Debbie jus beat it and dun 🤣 by the way. Yu sorrel and ginger will cure yu voice kwik time. Bless up
i had fresh sorrel bud and had it in the fridge for a week not thinking it would go bad...I don't know why i thought that. I guess i'll go back to the dried one. But i have followed your directions for a few years and it works great.
You should've put it on the freezer, had mine in there for a year..came put fresh as if you just picked it
Ms. Deb you need lil white rum fa de voice
Where can you find fresh sorrel in the States
Mmmm love sorrel drink. Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for sharing. Would this apply to making a tea? I haven't tried it cold but I like to make a tea each morning but making it your way tonight. 👍🏾
not that in depth for tea just brew for a few minutes
I drink mine hot as tea - it nice and refreshing
You can get sorrel in Publix suprermarket dry ore any Jamaica store less than four dollars per packets.
Myrtle, you will find it at most Caribbean markets. Never seen it at Publix. 😊
This is the recipe I have been waiting for. Thanks much!
ok bless up
I have seen when people bottle it they add about 5 grains of rise in the bottle. Does any one know why?
I read about it suppose to make it fizzy
I couldn’t find the fresh sorrel this year so I used the dried one. I spiced mine with:
root ginger
cinnamon stick
whole cloves and/or dried pimento seeds
fresh orange peel (didn’t have time to dry it), and
a fistful of uncooked rice.
I avoid powdered spices.
I introduced the sorrel drink to some of my foreign clients and it was fun listening to them trying to decipher the spices in it. The sorrel was the drink of the night.
the dried form is more flavourful bless tfs
westindian delights, I agree.
@@thejamaicancookingjourney if I were to use dried form, how much should I use? Couldn’t find actual flower
Thanks for your video is very helpful!
ur welcome
Manners and respect......wonderful intro

I don’t make sorrel in a metal pot tried before it did spoiled up my sorrel tasted very metallic so I place it into a plastic big bowl 👍👍
Plastic is worse try stainless steel or enamel next time
Debbie, I've had some dried Karkady -- same as Jamaican sorrel -- from the middle east for about five years now. Do you think it should still be good for making this drink?
HI ADAM that should be good and properly cured let me know when you makeit thanks for supporting
The orange peel is new to me, I’ll definitely add it next time. I always boil the ginger and will continue to do so; I think it’s more flavorful
Yep need to throw away soft mushy petals, haffi get mi money's worth 😂😂
Love u .this was my first time. Love your channel
blessings
Should I wash the dry one too
YES u should
Wash everything
@@diegogeneral1217 I'm in the state and the dry one that they have here when I wash it and then put it in the hot water and let it sit for few hours and when I going to stain it I realize that its get soft and mushy

I love this intro ... original
Manners and respect Mother.
why don't boil?
You don't have too. The old school way is let it sit for 3 or 4 days and let it ferment.
Lord Escanor,
That’s right. I remember my granny drawing, sweetening and bottling sorrel like a week before Christmas, and it was not refrigerated. It would become fermented and it was delicious!
Bless up Mam!
Nuff love DJ RICKEY
Yessssss Moms!! Good Explanation💯💕

I love making sorrel juice but when I make it the juice taste bitter. What am I doing wrong.
ok u need to tell me how u do urs before i can say thanks
I boiled dried sorrel for 30 min. but I will be following your recipe when I get more sorrel. don't know if I get cinnamon leaf in London x
highEQlevel just use regular ground cinnamon.. also. Don’t boil. As she said many times in the video. Lastly, you probably don’t have enough water
Hi highEQlevel,
Cinnamon sticks work very well. The powder doesn’t work as well. As a matter of fact I avoid all powders.
The best
Still the best recipe!
