About Bayjoo

Bayjoo is an alternative mabí, or tree bark brew, inspired by Indigenous Caribbean recipes. Crafted with mauby bark, unique to the Caribbean, and organic spices, herbs, and flowers that create bold and elevated flavor profiles. Bayjoo is sugar-free with less than 5 calories per serving. The founder, Ana, was born in NYC and raised in the Dominican Republic, where she grew up drinking traditional mabí. She's on a mission to bring this Caribbean classic to the American market, offering an innovative, healthier version. Just as Mexico has tepache and Argentina has yerba mate, the Caribbean has mabí. Our version maintains rich flavor without compromising on taste, featuring simple, plant-based ingredients. The star ingredient, mauby bark, has a historical use by the Tainos (indigenous people from the Caribbean) for health benefits. Bayjoo combines history, ancestral ingredients, culture, and health benefits for consumers seeking better-for-you drinks.Read their story
