BEVERAGES AND DESSERTS

What do you drink for lunch? Soda, Coke, water? And dessert? Do you prefer sweets or fruit? So, let’s get fat.

BEVERAGES (Beverages are “bebidas” em geral. There are different kinds of beverages. See below:

WATER : the main beverage. It’s natural. It’s the best to drink

SOFT DRINKS (Beverages with no alcohool)

soda (Its a false cognate. It’s not our SODA. It’s refrigerantes em geral)

juice (orange juice/grape juice)


lemonade

cola (Cola is the name of the drink made of cola like: Pepsi-cola, Coca-cola and other colas))

sparkling water

squash (concentrated juice to be mixed with water)

HOT BEVERAGES

coffee

cafe au lait (It’s a sophisticated name for coffe and milk)

expresso (It’s the same expresso we have in Brazil)

hot chocolate / hot cocoa (cocoa is the same as cacau, hot cocoa and hot chocolate are very similar)

tea (There are all kind of tea. The mosto popular now is the green tea)

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES ( IF YOU DRINK ALCOHOOL, DO NOT DRIVE)

beer (Did you know in europe they don’t drink their beer very cold)

draft beer (It’s our popular chopp)

wine (It can be red, white and rose)

DESSERTS

ice cream (You can see the flavors in the first coffee break on the post of September 20, 2008)

pudding (Chocolate pudding is my favorite)

pie (Remember McDonald’s apple pie?)

cake (Do you prepare a cake for your birthday?)

candy (guloseimas em geral)

cookie (The best American cookie in my opinion is chocolate chips cookie.)

donut (Very popular among police people. Seem them eating donuts in police films?)

muffin (A small Englsish cake)

jelly (The best if you are on a diet.)

So, that's all. Let's have a break with food now. Next post something new. Wait for me.

Bye
