Brief summary - Brazilian cuisine

Brazilian cuisine is the set of cooking practices and traditions of Brazil, and is characterized by, European, Amerindian, African, and most recently Asian (mostly Japanese) influences. It varies greatly by region, reflecting the country's mix of native and immigrant populations, and its continental size as well. This has created a national cuisine marked by the preservation of regional differences. The national beverage is coffee, while cachaÃ§a is Brazil's native liquor. CachaÃ§a is distilled from fermented sugar cane must, and is the main ingredient in the national cocktail, caipirinha.
