  drinking coconut water...

When you go to the beach in Brazil, don’t forget to drink from the refreshing coconuts that you can buy in the small kiosks based everywhere along the beach, or from street vendors everywhere.
They are the best refresh in brazilian hot weather and the water stays cool for a long time ...beer or water get's hot extremely fast!

When you walk throug the streets, don’t miss the extremely good fruit-juices (called "sucos" in portuguese) sold everywhere for just R$1,30 to R$2,50.
I’m not passionate when it comes to fruit but during my journeys to Brazil, I have drunk an unbelievable amount of fruit-juices.

There are great juice bars all over the cities with different fresh fruit juices with exciting exotic names like siriguela, taperaba, sapoti, graviola, acerola, cupuacu, abacaxi, uva, ...etc.

Favorite Dish: My favourite fruit juice is abacaxi...pineapple!

If you are there to buy one juice, just say:
"Gostaria um suco de .....

-laranja : orange
- uva: grape
- maca: apple
- morango: strawberry
- limao: lemon
- caju: cashew
- mamao: papaya
- banana: banana
- abacaxi: pineapple
- melancia: watermelon

The other names of fruits like "graviola, cupuacu, acerola", etc. you just have to taste...hmmmm...delicious!!!

To buy fresh coconut water you say:
"Gostaria agua de coco..."
