What Mauby is
Bitter-sweet bark infusion, served chilled.
Mauby is listed as a drink in the Barbados guide, where the index tags it tea. Treat those labels as a menu translation rather than the full picture. Portion size, garnish and cooking method change from one counter to the next, and so does the price.
Where to find Mauby
Mauby is listed as nationwide rather than tied to one city, so it is a safe thing to look for wherever you land in Barbados. Look for a place that makes it in front of you rather than pouring it from a bottle that has sat all day.
The Barbados guide also covers 5 dishes and 2 bakery items; open the country page for the full menu and the other places in the index.

Mauby: common questions
What is Mauby?
Bitter-sweet bark infusion, served chilled. It is listed in the TasteBridge Barbados guide as a drink.
How much does Mauby cost in Barbados?
Expect the budget band: usually under US$8. Prices move with the city and the venue, so treat this as a planning figure rather than a fixed menu price.
Is Mauby vegetarian?
Mauby is not tagged vegetarian in our data, because the tag is aimed at dishes rather than drinks. A plain black coffee, tea or fruit drink usually contains nothing animal-based, but milk, cream, honey, egg white or a pre-mixed powder can change that, so ask what goes in the cup.
Where can I try Mauby?
Our index lists it across Barbados, so it is not tied to one address. Ask locally which version is served at breakfast, lunch or late evening, because the same name can cover different presentations.
