Fruit juices have been consumed globally for centuries, but in Brazil, the abundance of tropical fruits and the blend of indigenous, African, and European culinary influences led to a unique and diverse juice culture. Traditional indigenous knowledge about native fruits combined with European techniques of juice extraction and preparation, resulting in the popular 'sucos' enjoyed today.

Sucos are an integral part of Brazilian daily life, consumed throughout the day from breakfast to dinner and during all seasons. They represent freshness, health, and the country's rich biodiversity. They are a common sight at restaurants, juice bars (lanchonetes), and street vendors, often enjoyed as a refreshing beverage or a healthy snack.
Ubiquity
Sucos are extremely common and easily found throughout Brazil. From high-end restaurants to simple street vendors, freshly made juices are a staple offering.
Healthy Lifestyle
Sucos are viewed as a healthy alternative to sugary sodas, promoting a connection to nature and fresh, wholesome ingredients. They are often consumed as part of a health-conscious diet.
Social Gathering
Enjoying sucos is often a social activity, whether it's sharing a pitcher with friends at a barbecue or grabbing a quick juice at a lanchonete with colleagues.

Sucos are characterized by a wide array of flavors, ranging from sweet and tangy to subtly tart, depending on the fruit or combinations used. The focus is on showcasing the natural flavors of fresh fruits, often with minimal added sugar or water.
Common flavors include those derived from fruits like acerola (tart and vitamin C-rich), mango (sweet and aromatic), passion fruit (tangy and fragrant), guava (sweet and slightly musky), papaya (creamy and mild), orange (citrusy and refreshing), and pineapple (sweet and acidic). Combinations are highly popular, such as mango and passion fruit, or orange and acerola. The level of sweetness and tartness is generally adjusted to personal preference, but the aim is always to highlight the inherent taste of the fresh fruit.

Fruit Seasonality
Prioritize using fruits that are in season for the freshest and most flavorful sucos. Local markets are great places to find seasonal produce.
Blending Consistency
Adjust the amount of water or ice to achieve your desired consistency. Some prefer a thicker juice, while others prefer it more watery.
Sweetness Control
Taste the juice before adding any sugar. Many fruits are naturally sweet enough. If needed, add sugar sparingly or use natural sweeteners.
Freshness is Key
Consume sucos immediately after preparation for the best flavor and to preserve the nutrients.
