Brunch: a modern phenomenon of the 21st century that cleverly merges breakfast and lunch into one long event. One of our favourite summer activities is brunch. Brunch parties by the river or a brunch picnic with friends is a delightful summer activity that many people around the world indulge in.
September is here which means back to school for most people. With summer ending and everything getting back into the full swing of hustle and bustle, it can be hard to find time to spend with close friends and family. This wet and rainy season in Jamaica doesn’t make it any easier to enjoy a pleasant outing like the weeks before. So why not take it inside and have your own DIY brunch? With these Jamaican products, you can do brunch like a true yardie and have lots of fun. Here are a few Jamaican products you will need to execute your very own brunch event.

A true Jamaican brunch is not complete without authentic Jamaican food. Ackee and Saltfish is the national dish of Jamaica, and cannot go unmentioned. This dish is the real MVP of brunch. You can order in from a local Jamaican restaurant, but that would not be as fun as making it yourself. You can check out this recipe and make your own delicious ackee and saltfish.
