Food and drinks, part2: To drink or not, if yes what?



This weekend I had a good possibility to drink Chicha morada. If you want to drink a non-alcoholic drink which suits very well to almost every food and is healthy, take Chicha morada instead of Coca cola for a change. I have drank it several times, and I like it. Another Peruvian non-alcoholic,very typical drink is Inca Kola, "el sabor de Péru" they market it...Some like it, some not.

Up to that in Lima they have this weekend elections and according to law it is forbidden for every restaurant and bar to sell alcoholic drinks. This is my fourth time in Peru, and this happens to me already for the third time! I almost cannot understand why they cannot serve alcohol to tourists, if the tourist shows his passport. Because we have no right to take in part in the Peruvian elections. But I think, this is a more or less a democratic way. So okay. Anyway I have noticed from the window of my apartment that some families at homes do have celebrations at homes, and that may be all night long...But of course, I do not know if this is very common.

If you come to Peru and like cocktails, you must order Pisco Sour. Chile and Peru both claim the Pisco Sour as their national drink, and it is made in these two countries a little bit different and served from a glass alike each other. In my point of view Pisco Sour is very good, and suits to every occasion and can be drank at every moment of the day. So try it! And to close down for the moment... If you are a beerlover, take a Cusqueña. A German borned Ernesto Günther founded the Cervecera Alemana (“German Brewery”) in the city of Cusco.Well, I think every beer in all parts of the world is originally founded by a German. They are the experts of beer brewing! No doubt about it.
