📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Switcha is a lime lemonade made in Bahamian homes: plenty of limes from the yard are squeezed, mixed with sugar and water, and chilled with ice. It's essential as a hot-day drink and for welcoming guests. Simple, it lets the aroma of island limes shine.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On the veranda of a Bahamian home, a pitcher of cold lime drink and glasses sit as a breeze blows in from the sea.
