What sort of event calls for a cocktail of Leblon Cachaca, Strawberry-Cinnamon "Conserva", Sweet Basil & Pop Rocks? You can drink the Sambista and other concoctions at the Brazilian Independence Day festivities at SUSHISAMBA 7 (87 Seventh Ave.; 212-691-7885) on Sunday, September 6. The event also includes performances by Arte Capoeira performers with Samba dancers. The food specials are also adventurous with treats such as the amazon roll of alligator tempura, smoked soy, chiles & bacon farofa. Now that's not your average Labor Day food!
