CAIPIRINHA

INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 heaping teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 measure cachaca
  • 1, cut into six segments lime(s)

DIRECTIONS

Add the brown sugar to a traditional stout glass, then add the lime segments and crush them to squeeze the juice into the mixture, leaving the pieces in when finished. Fill the glass with crushed ice, and finally add the cachaca, one measure or to taste. The trouble you go to for this cocktail is more than worth it, and in fact becomes part of the ritual of what is practically Brazil's national drink!
