In the Spanish language jarabe literally means syrup which probably refers to the mixture of meters within one jarabe (compare salsa).Typically a jarabe will go from a 6/8 to others sections with 3/4 2/4 return to 6/8 and end in another meter. The 6/8 rhythmic pattern is a constant pattern with no contratiempos as in the son jaliscience.
