For generations, abuelas have boiled the vibrant, paper-like bracts of bougainvillea to create a hot herbal tea (té de bugambilia).
It has long been used as a traditional home remedy to soothe coughs, clear respiratory tracts, and ease sore throats due to its natural expectorant properties.
Over time, the same hot infusion was cooled down, sweetened with honey or sugar, and mixed with fresh lime juice and ice to create a refreshing agua fresca, especially popular due to its vibrant color.
Have you ever had bougainvillea juice?

Saw a short called "When They're Gone" with Glynn Turman and Lawrence Hilton-Jacob's as widowers who meet at the cemetery last night and it was soooooo fucking good. 🥲
I hope they get the money to make a feature.

Sly Stone wrote Everyday People and Family Affair. At 71 he was living in an RV. A jury awarded him $5 million in his royalty case against his old manager, and a judge took it back.
In the video below, it is two days after the verdict. A reporter outside his RV asks what he will do with the money. "Probably get a bigger new RV," he says.
Three of his songs went to No. 1. For 20 years, he said, not one royalty check arrived.
In 1989 he signed with a new manager, Jerry Goldstein. His royalties went into a company they set up together, Even Street Productions, in exchange for a 50% stake.
In 2010 Sly sued him for $50 million. A year later he was found living in a camper van in Los Angeles.
In January 2015 a Los Angeles jury agreed the royalties had been diverted. It awarded him $5 million, $2.45 million of it from Goldstein.
Asked what he would do first, Sly said he would think of his kids.
Then a judge threw the verdict out. The 1989 signature was legal. He never got the $5 million.
Little Richard sold Tutti Frutti for $50. Sly Stone wrote three No. 1 hits and ended up in an RV.
Was Sly robbed, or did he sign it all away himself?
