Vilcabamba Ecuador | Trying Jugo de Caña for the First Time

Our plans to hike in Vilcabamba, Ecuador took an unexpected (and delicious) turn when we stumbled upon fresh sugarcane juice, known locally as jugo de caña. This sweet, refreshing drink is a must-try when exploring the lush valleys of southern Ecuador. Join us as we chat with locals, watch the juice-making process, and dive into this iconic Ecuadorian treat. Sometimes the best adventures happen when you go off the trail!
