Dried Piri-Piri & Poncha at Mercado dos Lavradores
This vibrant display at Funchal's historic Mercado dos Lavradores features hanging garlands of dried Piri-piri peppers (Capsicum frutescens) above shelves stocked with local Madeiran specialties. The arrangement showcases bottles of traditional Poncha—a cocktail of sugar cane rum, honey, and citrus—alongside jars of organic honey and fruit liqueurs like banana and passion fruit. The scene captures the colorful culinary heritage of the Portuguese archipelago.
