VISIT NICARAGUA: https://www.instagram.com/visitanicaragua CARLOS: https://www.instagram.com/carlostapiapineda MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG: https://davidsbeenhere.com/ My day exploring the city of Rivas continued with an epic visit to a local street market! Join me as I try authentic Nicaraguan street food at Rivas Central Market in Rivas, Nicaragua! Rivas Central Market is an amazing, lively market where you’ll find tons of vendors, foods, and more. Right away, we came across a woman making fresh juice and selling gum-flavored ice cream in a bag, or helado en bolsa! DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: https://teespring.com/stores/davids-been-here The ice cream was bright blue and tasted like bubblegum. But it was icier than ice cream, more like an ice pop. It was really tasty and refreshing on this hot, Nicaraguan morning, especially for just 5 cordobas! Next, we passed vendors selling clothing, hats, shoes, and kitchenware. Then, I met a woman selling achiote, the spice mixture they use to marinate many types of meat in Nicaragua! She also sold melons, lemons, pineapples, potatoes, chilies, bananas, broccoli, and even some strange-looking avocadoes. I tried a small chili pepper, which was so hot I had to run across the street to get some fresh orange juice in a bag! I was dying from the chili pepper and the juice helped so much! Instead of drinking out of the straw, I bit a hole in the corner of the bag and chugged it! It cost 25 cordobas. Next were vendors selling nail clippers, toothbrushes, combs, locks, and more. I even saw some vendors selling cool piggy panks, including a Minion, a penguin, and a rooster. They cost 200 cordobas total, or about $7 USD!
