Authentic Mauby Bark — A Caribbean Tradition in Every Sip
Sourced directly from Grenada, our 100% Pure Dried Organic Mauby Bark (Colubrina elliptica) brings the bold, bittersweet soul of the Caribbean straight to your kitchen. This is the real thing — the same bark that generations of island families have boiled down into one of the most beloved drinks in the region.
What Is Mauby?
Mauby is a traditional Caribbean beverage brewed from the bark of the Colubrina elliptica tree — a small, native tree found throughout the islands. The drink is distinctly bittersweet, deeply refreshing, and utterly unlike anything else. Ice-cold Mauby quenches thirst like no other, and it's been cherished across Barbados, Trinidad, Grenada, and beyond for centuries. Fair warning: it's an acquired taste — you either love it or you love it more.
