“A Taste of History” a Special Black History Month Cooking Event with Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins

In keeping with this year’s Black History Month theme, “Black Health and Wellness,” New York Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and State Senator Shelly Mayer are holding a Zoom event on February 23 at 6 pm called “A Taste of History.” They will be joined by two of New York’s most famous rappers, Jadakiss and Styles P, owners of Juices for Life, and Chef Nikko of Evanders Fish & Chips, both in Yonkers. 
 

They invite all of us to cook along with Chef Nikko as they discuss the traditions of soul food in America and how healthy food can recharge ourselves and maintain our well-being. The Chef will be preparing BBQ chicken, a vegetarian alternative, and various sides. Register here for the event and you’ll get a link to the list of the ingredients and some recipes to follow along.
 

With food comes a beverage, and they will be visiting Juices for Life, an organic juice bar owned by Jadakiss and Styles P, along with their partner and barista, Hit. As they discuss the importance of making fruits and vegetables affordable and convenient, the Juices for Life crew will prepare a healthy smoothie dubbed “The Senator.”
