Cider! Oh yes!Cider is very common (and refreshing!) in Portugal. The two main brands are Somersby and Bandido do Pomar. Bom caminho!
Thank you @dougfitz !I hope you enjoy your pilgrimage. I know that you are much better at keeping your fellow forum members informed about your progress than I am, so I am looking forward to hearing more about this venture.
I think that we will need your name on Find Penguins.You can also follow my steps in FindPenguins
Andrew and Rachel GuillaumeI think that we will need your name on Find Penguins.
Just looked it up, cuz I live in central Portugal and haven't seen this. It's a Cocacola product. It looks as if it's much more common in Spain than here in Portugal. Maybe just getting introduced.Aquarius is readily available on the Central. I was just there and drank a LOT of it. I don't remember it being there last time I was there (2018), so maybe Aquarius has expanded their reach...
Aquarius is more like Gatorade, whereas tinto de verano is red wine mixed with a lemon soda like Kas Limón.This is the first year I've seen this commercially bottled tinto de verano limao in the various grocery stores...certainly here in central Portugal, north of Lisboa...it sounds as if it might be quite like Aquarius--I'm not familiar with that
My absolute favourite was Pedras con limon ... it is a citrussy and very refreshing drink, slightly carbonated and not too sweet.Olà,
We'll be starting our Caminho Português in a few days. We're on our way to Lisboa from Málaga (by train and bus), and as I was enjoying my last tinto de verano con limón, I wondered what the equivalent might be in Portugal.
My darling and I enjoy also an Aquarius Limón, which I assume might not be available in Portugal?
Any suggestions of refreshing drinks (non alcoholic and light) for our next two months in Portugal?
Obrigado!
One that I have heard of that is quite delectable is what is referred to as a 'drink of Christ.' It tastes quite good and it is free. ChuckOlà,

My nephew made the mistake of thinking cider was non-alcoholic too!Cider is very common (and refreshing!) in Portugal. The two main brands are Somersby and Bandido do Pomar. Bom caminho!
Shandy in English, Clara in Spanish, not sure what it's called in Portuguese.I sometimes order a Panaché at the bar or cafe when I’m thirsty but want something lighter in alcohol. It’s a mix of beer and lemon-lime soda.
You're surely not suggesting they drink dihydrogen monoxide are you? It has a pH value of 7 (hydrochloric acid is only pH3.5) causes oxidation in certain metals, and in its solid format has been know to cause large ships to sink. Not only that but "fish make love in it" (Noel Coward - but he didn't say "make love")One that I have heard of that is quite delectable is what is referred to as a 'drink of Christ.'

So not non-alcoholic then . . .Aquarius is more like Gatorade, whereas tinto de verano is red wine mixed with a lemon soda like Kas Limón.
Panaché or radler--they should understand both. The commercially bottled stuff that's often sold in bars or cafés is Sagres-brand Radler. It's pretty good. It should cost about the same as a normal bottled beer. Probably about 1.5 euros, maybe a bit less in small cafés.Shandy in English, Clara in Spanish, not sure what it's called in Portuguese.
Just looked it up because I hadn't heard of it.While on the topic, is ColaCao available in Portugal, or is there a Portuguese equivalent?
