is probably nearest in meaning to the original which implies a health giving drink.your idea of" health to drink" makes no sense here.you only drink to (someones)health as a toast.,but easy to drink would really only apply literally when a beverage was aimed at a specific market like babies or the infirm where ability to drink normally was not yet developed/impaired.

Assim, tudo junto, no jeito "speakeasy".

Claro, "Healthy drink" ficaria melhor, mas acho que "Drinkeasy" é uma boa sacada. Veja este texto, de http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speakeasy


A speakeasy was an establishment that was used for selling and drinking alcoholic beverages during the period of United States history known as Prohibition (1920-1933, longer in some states), when selling or buying alcohol was illegal. The term comes from a patron's manner of ordering alcohol without raising suspicion — a bartender would tell a patron to be quiet and "speak easy".

The origin of the word predates Prohibition by at least 30 years. Samuel Hudson, a newspaperman in the late 19th century, said he heard the term used in Pittsburgh in the 1880s by an old Irish woman who sold liquor without a license. She told her clients to "speak easy" if they wanted to buy some. The Cassell Dictionary of Slang lists the word as coming into usage around 1890. The term spake-aisy was used even a century before this, where it referred to smugglers' hideouts.

One former speakeasy still exists in New York city, Chumley's at 86 Bedford Street. It remains authentically decorated and there are no signs on the door to indicate that inside lies a bar and restaurant. There is even a secret back door leading out to a passageway on to Barrow Street so that customers could make a quick exit when the police called.

Speakeasies became more popular and numerous as the Prohibition years progressed, as well as more commonly operated by those with connections to organized crime. Although police and United States Federal Government agents would raid such establishments and arrest the owners and patrons, the business of running speakeasies was so lucrative that such establishments continued to flourish throughout the nation. In major cities, speakeasies could often be elaborate, offering food, live bands, and floor shows. Police corruption at this time was notoriously rampant; police were commonly bribed by speakeasy operators to either leave them alone or at least give them advance notice of any planned raid.

Another slang term similar to a speakeasy is "blind pig". The difference between a speakeasy and a blind pig is that a speakeasy was usually a higher class establishment, where a blind pig was a lower class dive.

A modern related term is the smokeasy, a discreet venue that operates in places where smoking tobacco in bars and clubs is prohibited.

Também penso que "healthy drink" soa melhor. Esta é só uma ideia que me surgiu

Or you could also use : GOES DOWN EASILY

With all the greatest respect to my esteemed colleague 'rhandler', I have never heard the term 'drinkeasy'. Your reasoning is solid but....based on 'speakeasy'...? Sorry, but you've invented it.

Moving on, how does 'fácil de beber' (easy to drink) have anything in common with "health" ??

Simply speaking, if something is easy to drink, it's VERY DRINKABLE.
Conversation:
A: (In the bar) Can you recommend a drink please, bartender?
B: Yes, try the Caipirinha
A: Umm, that's nice, it's very drinkable.

A common phrase in advertising. This can refer to a beverage that is pleasant tasting or in a container that is handy to use.

If you want to coin a phrase, a copywriter migh help with some good synonyms. Most of the other suggestions are not bad. My ultimate suggestion is to have a native of the target language community screen the option.
