“Like most people of Caribbean heritage, I started to make my own blend in my kitchen. The problem is that hibiscus is so bitter, and people tend to cut it with lots of sugar. It gets really syrupy… I just thought I could do it better.” [9:45]
“Red Hook was part of the ocean. It was underwater for at least 12 hours during the storm.” [12:00]
