On a hot day like this you have to get yourself a big glass of switcher with ice, for all you non-Bahamians that is what we call our lemonade. But we don’t put our umbrellas in the glass, we put our glass under the umbrella along side a lounge chair or hammock and drink in the ocean breeze while we decide which Bahamian soul food recipe we will prepare that day . Now what makes our homemade recipes from Bahamas so special is that our culture is a melting pot of many nations and people. Yes sir, we international. We got African, European, German, Italian, Greek, Spanish, Canadian, American and every bit of the Caribbean mixed all up in here.
