What do you get when you toss a little frog in with bean broth, honey, aloe vera, and maca root and mix it all in a blender? Peruvian Viagra! In Lima, Peru, Carmen Gonzalez, owner of a countertop restaurant, serves this steaming hot drink to over 50 customers a day, sometimes in place of morning coffee. Many customers perceive it as a cure-all for fatigue, respiratory problems, and to stimulate the libido (when no one is looking, of course).  Carmen Gonzalez plucks one of the 50 frogs from the aquarium at her bus stop restaurant, bangs it against tiles to kill it and then makes two incisions along its belly and peels off the skin as if husking corn. She's preparing frog juice, a beverage revered by some Andean cultures for having the power to cure asthma, bronchitis, sluggishness and a low sex drive. A drink of so-called "Peruvian Viagra" sells for about 90 cents.
