Forbes - Mauby: No Longer The Caribbean’s Bitter Sweet Secret

While googling mauby bark, we came across this amazing article that explains that origin, cultural significance, and evolution / future of this ancestral ingredient, mauby bark. To our surprise, we were mentioned and quoted:

"One of the more popular takes on the beverage on the US market is bayjoo, made by Dominican Republic-[raised], and Brooklyn-based Ana Bautista.

“Being born in NYC and raised in the Dominican Republic by a Dominican father and a Dominican-Chinese mother, I felt the need to implement more cultures into each bottle,” says Bautista.

“We include organic ingredients from all over the world: our main superstar— mauby bark from the Caribbean. We also use black tea, lavender and spearmint, and the list goes on. I decided to make my own version of mabí, a remix, if you want to call it that. We put all this goodness together in the first sugar-free, canned alternative mabí.”
