What (ever) comes around, we drink it.

Explanation:
that's word play for "aqui se faz, aqui se paga"
The equivalent would be 'what goes around, comes around".
So my suggestion would be something like "what comes around, we drink it". Or you can try to come up with something catchier.

Good luck

''What Happens Here Stays Here"

Explanation:
Se quiser um tagline bem livre, este é muito usado aqui nos EUA. Foi criado para definir a cidade de Las Vegas, numa alusão ao respeito à privacidade dos clientes de hotéis e bares da cidade. . e é agora muito usado em contextos mais gerais.

http://www.stevefriess.com/archive/bostonglobe/Vegasslogan.h...

"Eighteen months ago, Candido and Hoff penned a tagline for the city of Las Vegas' new, risqu´e tourist campaign, ''What Happens Here Stays Here.'' To Hoff, 26 years old, Crystal's appropriation of it was ''surreal because it was so random,'' and proof positive that the campaign had coursed its way into the popular lexicon in a way few ad slogans ever do.

Drink and be merry here

Explanation:
You can't be literal here and besides English readers probably won't know the Portuguese play on words.

So I'm suggesting a variation of "eat, drink and be merry".
