Sinopse do Episódio

In this episode, we explore the cajuzinho do cerrado (also known as cajuí), a native Brazilian fruit found in states such as Goiás, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, and the Federal District. Smaller than the common cashew, it offers a tangy, juicy flavor with colors ranging from yellow to red. Rich in vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, the cajuzinho can be enjoyed fresh or used in juices, desserts, and even fermented beverages such as spirits.
