A few things that came back home with us from Brazil: The NEED for an espresso machine, and fresh juice in the morning. "Suco de melencia" is one of my favorites. Has been since I first encountered it in Mexico while studying abroad as a 20 something. In Mexico its "jugo de sandia". Its funny what words you learn to say first in a foreign language!
Its also funny/strange that I never tried to make this favorite at home before! And whats even more strange is that we don't have watermelon juice here! Its a pretty color and tastes like summer. My rendition?: some watermelon, a little ice & water, lime juice, and maybe a little sugar in the blender . . . DONE!
