About Michelle Rousseau | Suzanne Rousseau

Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau

Sisters Michelle and Suzanne Rousseau have spent the last 20 years exploring the culture and identity of Caribbean food from their unique vantage point as Jamaican chefs and entrepreneurs. They were the hosts of the popular food and travel show Two Sisters and a Meal. They also produced and starred in the web series Island Potluck, a joint production with the Jamaica Tourist Board. Their first cookbook, Caribbean Potluck, received critical acclaim and was named one of NPR’s Best Books of 2014. Most recently, they have opened Summerhouse at the Liguanea Club in Kingston, Jamaica, a Caribbean gastropub with the mission of celebrating the soul, heritage, and lifestyle of the islands. @2sistasandameal

This stunning sipper from Michelle and Suzanne Rousseau is made from fragrant, sweet hibiscus flowers and spices. Brilliant when mixed with prosecco or enjoyed cold on a hot June afternoon. Equally ingenious any time of year.
