Leblon Cachaca 2016
Caipirinhas For Everyone!

We have always known that Rio is a great city to host the 2016 Summer Olympics. We don't think we need to toot our own horn here, so we'd like to take a moment away from celebrating to thank each of the runner-up cities.

To Madrid: Your passion for football rivals ours and we'll even admit your logo is really cool, but in the end we've got beautiful beaches and you.. don't. Hope you understand. We toast to you with a King Carlos Caipirinha. Amor y!

To Chicago: We know you've had a really great year with Obama and all so we don't have any regrets about you losing. Instead, we'll dedicate this Chi-Town Consolation Caipirinha to the Cubs. Cheers!

To Tokyo: Honestly we were looking forward to perhaps enjoying the most compact and efficient Olympic Games ever. Maybe in another 11 years? Kanpai, Tokyo! With a Far East Caipirinha!

And for the rest of the world: a Lemon Lime and Blue Caipirinha in the colors of Brasil! Saudé!
