Ano Novo in Rio de Janeiro

27 December 2011

Start the New Year off like a true native of Rio de Janeiro – a Carioca – with a bowl of lentil soup, the traditional Brazilian first meal of the day. Dress in white to usher in peace, or sip on caipirinhas, Brazil’s traditional cocktail made with sugar cane rum at one of its epic parties on Ipanema and Copacabana beaches. No matter what you do in Rio, you’re doing it as part of one of the most spectacular New Year’s Eve celebrations in the world.
