Blessings, I’m Isylah Haynes, a mother, a creative, cultural curator, and the proud founder of Afrito™️.

Rooted in the rich traditions of my African and Caribbean ancestry, from Nigeria to Jamaica to Barbados. I come from a long line of visionaries, midwives, activist and makers. Raised in Dorchester by parents who embodied art, and legacy, I was taught to lead with intention, honor my heritage, and pour love into everything I create.

Afrito™️ was born in my kitchen during the Kwanzaa season of the pandemic. A time of uncertainty that called for healing, joy, and deep connection. What started as a soulful holiday drink for my family became something bigger: a creamy, bold, Afro-Caribbean blend that evokes memories, sparks conversations, and nourishes the spirit.

This isn’t just a beverage, it’s a legacy in a bottle.

As a mother of five and grandmother of three, my mission is generational. I’m building Afrito™️ not just as a premium product, but as a movement. One rooted in culture, creativity, wellness, and wealth-building for my community.

This is more than a business. It’s a love letter to my roots, my city, and everyone who deserves to sip something made with meaning.

Welcome to Afrito™️. Sip the vibe. Feel the legacy.
