Yes! Backriver Blends is naturally vegan and gluten-free. Our jerk marinades are made with fresh
vegetables like scallions, garlic, ginger, and peppers, along with vinegars, molasses, and a blend of spices
such as allspice, cinnamon, and cayenne. We carefully select all our ingredients to ensure they're both
flavorful and suitable for various dietary preferences, so you can enjoy them with confidence!

Thanks to the natural preserving qualities of ingredients like vinegar, garlic, ginger, and salt, Backriver
Blends jerk marinades are shelf-stable when unopened. Once opened, we recommend refrigerating for
the best flavor and freshness. While our marinades can last for months in the fridge, we suggest using
them within 3 months after opening for peak taste—though they're usually gone much sooner!

I'm Jordene — a proud Jamaican native and the founder of Backriver Blends. I'm on a mission to share
the bold, authentic flavors of Jamaica with the world. Backriver Blends was born from my love for real
Jamaican food and the belief that every meal deserves a little island magic. Trust me, once you taste it,
you'll understand why we don't do bland!
