On New Year's Eve, in Brazil, the natives celebrate by dressing in white and going to the beach to watch the fireworks. After midnight, they jump seven waves and throw flowers in the sea while making a wish. Some people also light candles in the sand on the beach. This is believed to bring good luck and fortune.

They say that the goddess who protects the sea (YEMANJÁ:Ye + omo + eja) will make their wishes come true.

We invite you to take part in our tradition, dress all in white and bring in the New Year in complete relvery with Live Percussion and the best mix of Neo-Brasilian Fusion (Pagode, Samba, House, Drum n'Bass, Mangue Beat, Classics)

What's a Beleza Pura Caipirinha?

A caipirinha is the national drink of Brazil, that delicious crushed,
fresh lime cocktail you've seen popping up everywhere. It's made
with cachaça. Until now, the only cachaça available in the US
was the stuff that bad hangover are made from.

Beleza Pura Super Premium Cachaça is another story,
a refined spirit that compares to the finest tequilas, rums and vodkas.

Beleza Pura means “pure beauty” in Portuguese. In a caipirinha
or other exotic drinks, Beleza Pura means the purest,
smoothest cocktail, and a taste of Brazil's vibrant culture.
