Mango and passion fruit, what a combo! For our conversation about the Icamiabas, this drink is a good choice! Super easy to make, and you can adapt according to the ingredients you have at home.

Oh, and it gets even better with a ball of mango sorbet 🥭

When I prepared it, I used 60 ml of white rum and the rest was this Mango and Passion Fruit seltzer. But if you want to make something more natural, beat the rum with ice, 60ml of mango juice and 30ml of passion fruit juice. Serve and top up with tonic water.

Forrobodó 💃 Chiquinha Gonzaga's story is one

Forrobodó 💃

Chiquinha Gonzaga's story is one of those that makes you smile! That's why I think that a yellow, happy and sweet drink is all about it. But, since Chiquinha was a woman considered controversial in her time, you need to add a spicy touch to stir things up!

Then make the Forrobodó, because this drink is delicious!

Ingredients
50 ml of pineapple juice
15 ml of cachaça (pineapple flavoured, if you have it)
20 ml of spicy syrup*
20 ml of lemon juice

For the spicy syrup, simmer 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water and a few slices of seedless pepper on low heat. Simmer for about 1 minute, remove from heat and let cool. When cold, strain and bottle. Store in refrigerator.

To prepare the drink, shake all ingredients with ice and enjoy!

⭐ Spicy Fifty ⭐

In honor of Pagu, it is absolutely necessary to have a drink with a strong footprint. So how about adding a touch of pepper? I think it has everything to do with Pagu's personality. Furthermore, the Russian influences of communism and socialism are present in this cocktail through the use of vodka.

But don't worry if the pepper looks a little scary! We put just a little, to give that feeling at the end of the drink.

Ingredients
50 ml of vodka
15 ml of elderflower liqueur
20 ml of simple sugar syrup
20 ml of lemon juice
2 thin slices of pepper, without seeds

Shake all ingredients with ice. Enjoy!

Dunkel & Stürmig 🍺

This drink may not look very good at first, but this whole mixture works! This cocktail is full of nuances, and super tasty!

Since Maria José lived in Belgium and was fluent in German, I thought this drink with dark beer is a good choice!

Ingredients:
- 50 ml dark rum
- 10 ml of coffee liquor (I used Kahlua)
- 10 ml lemon juice
- 2 drops angostura bitters
- 50 ml dark lager beer
- 50 ml ginger beer

Shake the first four ingredients with ice. Transfer to a glass, without the ice. Add beer and ginger beer and mix. Ready to enjoy!

⭐ Dark Passion ⭐

After this not so easy to hear episode about the amazing Carolina Maria de Jesus, we need a drink to calm our heart.

Nothing better than a little passion fruit for this!

Tell us what you think of the cocktail in the comments 😉

Ingredients:
60 ml of dark rum
15 ml of bourbon
4 ml of lemon juice
15 to 30 ml of frozen passion fruit juice (I melted enough to get this amount)
15 to 30 ml of sugar syrup
Optional - 1 vegan egg white substitute (you can use 30 ml aquafaba)

Shake all ingredients except the egg substitute in a cocktail shaker with ice. Remove the ice, add the egg whites and beat again. Serve and enjoy!

🍷 This drink feels fancy, like the star of this episode. To follow the stories about the Countess of Barral, this Mimosa de Romã is the perfect choice! Refreshing and sweet in just the right measure, it will make you feel pretty chic - at least that's how I felt.

Pomegranate Mimosa - Countess of Barral
Sugar and lemon to make the sugar rim
130ml of sparkling wine
Pomegranate juice (I used juice in a box)

Pass a quarter of a lemon around the edge of the glass. Put some sugar in a shallow dish and roll the rim of the cup into the sugar. Pour the sparkling wine into the glass, and add the pomegranate juice to the top. Squeeze some lemon on top and enjoy!
