Mate Gelado

If you come to Rio there is something you should try in the beach: MATE GELADO (Iced Mate)

Very few things are as carioca as Mate Gelado & Biscoito Globo at the beach.

In fact, for locals, this iconic brew could even be considered, arguably, more popular than coconut water.

Mate culture at Rio de Janeiro beaches has become an institution since vendors started selling it at the beach in the 1950s.

The sellers put the drink into huge metal containers that can hold close to 50 liters and carry them on their shoulders. And they carry two containers, one on each shoulder — one has the mate and the other one has the fruit syrups for you to choose from.

You can spot the orange wearing mate sellers easily. Not just because they’re wearing orange, or because they’re carrying metal tins under their arms but because they’re yelling: “Olha o Mate!!! Alô, Mate!!!” You really can’t miss them.

And don’t forget to ask for the chorinho, which is the extra pour of mate they give you as you sit there and sip, sip, and sip while you’re coming up with your perfect blend of juice and tea — they’ll pour you this “treat” pour, the chorinho, up until they leave.

Mate is an herbal tea made with leaves and twigs of the Ilex paraguariensis plant. The leaves are typically dried over a fire and then steeped in hot water to make tea. Super rich in antioxidants and nutrients, this delicious blend combines the properties of traditional yerba mate, with a high concentration of antioxidants and mineral salts, chlorophyll and vitamins.

Fun fact about the processing of yerba mate: Yerba mate is a tree that grows in the south and center-west of Brazil, northern Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. The drink obtained from the infusion of its leaves is very rich in vitamins and antioxidants. It is also a powerful stimulant as it contains caffeine.

The majestic main door of the former Companhia Docas de Santos, seen above, is centrally decorated by two vessels – alluding to the activity of the company installed there -, framed by the rich Brazilian vegetation, represented by to***co leaves, palm trees, sugar cane plants. sugar and coffee.

Pitanga
(Eugenia uniflora) is a typical Brazilian fruit that it can be found in several states and has an excellent mix of nutrients, vitamins and bioactive compounds .

This tree is easy to find around the city. Now we are entering on spring, and most of them are starting to give us the fruit. So when I walk with my daughter we use to take some of them to eat on the way back home!

A plant native to our country, the pitangueira produces orange, red and even purple fruits. Compared to other fruits, it is still little consumed, including due to the difficulty of commercially distributing it fresh, as it is very fragile. But it is abundant in nature and versatile in preparations, as well as rich in vitamins A and C, phosphorus, iron, zinc, manganese, magnesium, potassium and calcium.

Phenolic acids and flavonoids , with antioxidant properties, are other substances present in this small fruit, which is full of health benefits.

Strengthens immunity
Acts on the nervous system
It is part of an anti-cancer diet
Good for the stomach
Fights bacteria

Pitanga can be used to make delicious juices, jams, or homemade sweets. Liqueurs and ice cream are other options for preparing pitanga.
