50 hooligans

I turn into one after two shots of cachaça :glugglug

distilled from sugar-cane

One of their factories is a few miles away from my apt.

some of those drink recipes look pretty tasty!

hmmmm...... we got a sugar cane factory here about 10 miles away. Half the island is sugar cane...... :Graucho

i wonder if they make it here too.


ever heard of C&H Sugar? (Californian & Hawaiian) Basically, they grow the cane here, process it, ship it to California, turn it into granulated sugar, package it, ship it back, then we ship it all over the world.


(wacked expensive system if ya ask me, but that's how they do it.)

Funny system they got there. This sugar must be real "cheap". :winkwink:

I've never seen a single sugar cane plantation in this state :eek7

I gotta find where does all this sugar cane comes from. It must be from cities far away from the beach.

They produce lots of others products from the sugar cane, I've even been to a tiny factory... but damn, where do they hide the sugar cane? :winkwink:

Yeh that is a messed up system.

I guess officially cachaça is a type of rum since it is made from sugar cane. It is pure firewater to me the couple times I tried it but I'm not really a shots drinker, beer works fine.

you can't miss the cane here.... it's everywhere. Shit is tall too. Lines the roads. Other than sugar cane, we got shitloads of pineapples and full on bamboo forests.

(and coconut trees.... they're everywhere. There's one in my front yard.)

they harvest the cane by burning it. They'll burn a whole damn field at once. It throws black ash all over the island. We call it Hawaiian snow.... lol.... shit comes even all the way down here to Wailea.

Brazilian women look sexy

It's pure firewater for everyone. This shit is HOT!

I don't drink, but sometimes I feel like drinking a caipirinha (cachaça + ice + sugar + lemon) or other drinks with cachaça on it

I've seen it in the São Paulo state. The plantations there are HUGE! In São Paulo they use a good part of it to make alcohol (car combustible).

And we have coconut trees everywhere here too. I like coconut water.

The last time I drank beer was in November 2002. Oh wait, that's not true. I bought a bottle of a german beer this year and IT SUCKED BAD. Arght.

Ok, 3:11 AM ... I'll sleep.

Feel free to post and I'll reply when I wake up, heheh :)

Not just the women. I'm so damn sexy.
