Starting this week, I’ve decided to try every flavor of fruit juice in Rio. I realized that I’m getting way too used to my acai, suco de fruta do conde, and my addiction to agua de coco. I simply cannot leave here without having tried them all!
I attempted to drink suco de mangaba (always without sugar), a fruit found in the Amazon. Sorry to say, but I couldn’t get past three sips without throwing it away. It tasted pungent (I know that is a word usually reserved for smells, but there is no other way of describing it), and I’m not sure that sugar would have made it that much better… perhaps, considering it WAS on the menu. I doubt I’ll attempt it again, but it was worth a shot. Let’s see what tomorrow bring….
