Buy Black Business Spotlight: Ellis Island Tea

Ellis Island Tea

Ellis Isle has been on the scene since 2008, but the original family tea recipe? That spans back centuries. When Nailah Ellis founded her company she based the tea on a family recipe created by her great-grandfather, Cyril Byron, a Jamaican immigrant and chef who came to America through Ellis Island more than 100 years ago. This refreshing Jamaican tea now operates a full-scale, state-of-the-art production facility and ships orders to retailers and customers nationwide.

Ellis Isle only uses real, natural hibiscus, rosehips, honey and mint. Just like Pop Ellis would.  Last year comedian/actor Kevin Hart invested in the Michigan-based beverage company.  Find our more at www.ellisislandtea.com.
