Our Story
The Story Behind
the Squeeze.
Two islands. One dream. A lemonade that tastes like home — wherever home is.
How It Started
From Nassau to
Prince Edward Island.
The journey of Main Squeeze Lemonade began under the sun-kissed skies of Nassau, Bahamas back in 2012. It was here that Jared and Cicely Whyms started crafting delicious lemonade for their family and friends.
Encouraged by rave reviews, they decided to share their passion with the world. Their homemade recipe — infused with love and a burst of island zest — quickly became a local sensation at festivals and events, winning numerous awards and accolades along the way.
Inspired by their success in The Bahamas, they are now bringing Main Squeeze to Atlantic Canada — blending the vibrant spirit of tropical paradise with the soulful charm of the Atlantic shores.
