History:
"... during the Second World War, the American Army, which already used
Coca Cola as the main soft drink, for its troops, and also with Brazil,
during the Brazilian campaign in the war in Italy, began to distribute
it to Brazilian soldiers.
Samba in Berlin was nothing more than the creativity of our soldiers,
who mixed the soft drink with the old “cachaça”, always present in our
soldiers' backpacks, as they could not stand its bitter taste. That
mixture caused some kind of reaction and they began to have redoubled
courage as the war progressed.
After the war, they began to be cited by allied troops as being the
coldest warriors, in all battles, including that of "Montese".
With this, "Samba in Berlin" became widely known throughout the world."
