I remember my nights in Huaringas, a bar close to the beach in Miraflores, Lima – Peru. Every Friday, at 7:00 o’clock, after work, my friends and I meet in Huaringas. We spend our Friday nights together talking about politics, the economy, life, love, and sex. In this bar I feel comfortable. It is not only the atmosphere of this warm bar and its friendly waitress but also the variety of liquors made with pisco, the Peruvian alcohol drink. I usually drink an “aguaymanto sour”, a combination of pisco and aguaymanto, a fruit from the Peruvian jungle. Closing my eyes I imagine I am in Huaringas, seeing my friends, listening to rhythmical music, smelling the fragrance of the night close to the beach, and tasting a delicious aguaymanto sour. I know Huaringas is the bridge to feel affection, to listen to lyrical music, and to taste the Fridays’s night flavor.
