He not just mixes the ponchas, he makes a complete show of it, a happy, funny show. We love the poncha abacaxí com menta, pineapple and mint. But there's a poncha for every taste: regional (lime), maracujá (passions fruit), morango (strawberry), etc. They serve dishes and sandwiches as well, which we have never tried, but other people have assured us the food is good.
