History:
",,, during the Second World War, the American Army, which already used Coca Cola, as its main soft drink, to feed its troops, and which also participated with Brazil, during the Brazilian campaign in the war from Italy, started distributing it to Brazilian soldiers. That was when the drink called “Samba in Berlin” was born, which was nothing more, a creativity of our soldiers, who mixed the soft drink with the old “cachaça”, always present in the meal from our soldiers' backpacks, as they could not stand its bitter taste. That mixture caused some kind of reaction and they began to have double courage. During the course of the war, they began to be cited by the allied troops as being the most cold-blooded warriors , in all battles, including that of “Montese”. With this, “Samba in Berlin” became widely known throughout the world."
