Water is essential. There is no life without water, obviously. Clearly, people need it for survival so it’s no surprise that it’s the universal beverage all over the world.
Many people add a little this & a little that for more flavor in their water. I love plain water, but I also love to toss in some fruit. I spend time in Brazil every year and most recently, I’ve come across the most extravagant complimentary fruit water offered to the shoppers at a grocery store in the Amazonas state of Manaus.
They layer pineapple on the bottom, then slices of guava, and then mango on the top! It’s both delicious and refreshing. And I appreciate the care and thoughtfulness demonstrated in this fabulous nectar. As a business owner always striving to make our clients and patients happy, it warmed my heart. Of course, it IS very hot in Brazil, which makes this gesture all the more welcome!
