Here’s a cocktail that you can dress up or keep
simple. The sexy Caipirinha from Brazil
can liven up any party…So even if summer is all about the sun and the heat, the
partying spirit won’t cool down.
Summer wouldn’t be summer without the
citrus refreshment provided by Brazil’s Caipirinha. This calls for lime juice and good rum as its
base. The Caipirinha liquor of choice is the Cachaca, a distilled white sugar cane
alcohol. Originally considered a ‘poor
man’s drink,’ today, the humble Cachaca is experiencing a much-lauded revival.
Get the ingredients together. You will
need a lime; Cachaca; sugar to taste and ice cubes.
Method:
Cut the lime into pieces and place them
in a glass. Sprinkle with the sugar and crush the pieces (pulp side up) with a
pestle, just enough t release the juice, otherwise it will get bitter. Add the Cachaca and stir. Add ice and stir
again. It is delicious and potent.
