Daniel Erthal Returns to Copacabana Réveillon, Debuts New Beverage Cart

Overview

• The former Malhação actor worked through New Year’s in Copacabana selling drinks alone, documenting the night on Instagram.
• He carried his own ice and served visitors in multiple languages, calling the work exhausting despite the strong sales.
• This was his first outing with a replacement cart after his original was stolen months earlier.
• Erthal says he now lives from his personal brand, presents an online draw program, and plans to seek TV auditions in 2026.
• He invested over R$100,000 in a Botafogo bar opened about a year ago, says it has not turned a profit, and is weighing closure or relocation.
