'Açaí' is a celebrated tropical 'super-food' which can be consumed in a number of different forms, including juices, smoothies and sorbets - often sprinkled with sweet and crunchy granola, banana, strawberries and honey.

No matter the food or the occasion, beer has been a landmark drink in Rio for a long time, where the first records of its consumption date back to the 17th Century. Nowadays, at all big social events, street parties and buzzing squares, street vendors sell cans and bottles from big, portable ice boxes and locals stands. Traditionally, as important as the make of the beer, so is its temperaure: the colder the better!
