Telling this story is hard for me. I've never done it without tears.

I love my brand. But it's more than a brand. It's a love letter to my heritage and my family.

I was raised to share stories. The story of my family is one that means a lot to me. But it isn't unique. It's a story we all share.

It's like my great grandmother's quilt, everyone puts their piece in and then we have a beautiful masterpiece preserving our legacy and laced with our love.

I'm without words.

Holding the program for the woman who planted this lemonade seed in me will always feel surreal.

It's been almost 24 years since we lost her presence on this Earth. But I'm so grateful that her spirit is still here with us.

Her heart.
Her power.
Her strength.
Her grace.

She kept the recipes safe. She passed them down.

And now some of them exist here as a lemonade concentrate brand that honors Black Americans and Black Caribbeans.

I just hope she's proud of me.

This is to celebrate the relaunch of The Lemonade Lair on .

I wanted to get a lil bit personal and talk about the woman that created the basis for Blacker The Berry Lemonade, my grandma Martha Boddie.

I'm sorry if this story time isn't the most well done. This was a very emotional moment and this is my first time publicly sharing this story.

I hope you'll share your thoughts here and on substack.

See y'all soon💛
