Caipirinhas
The Brazilian National drink and cocktail.
Cachaça, a liquor made from sugarcane, gives these drinks their distinctive flavor. In Brazil it is traditional to make Caipirinhas one or two at a time, as we do here. For ease of entertaining, however, you can simply combine all the ingredients in a pitcher.
Step 1: Quarter 1 lime lengthwise, then cut each quarter in half crosswise and divide pieces between 2 (6-ounce) glasses.
Step 2: Add 1 tablespoon sugar to each glass with the lime pieces, then add the lime pieces and press with a wooden spoon until the sugar is dissolved. Fill each glass with ice and add 3 tablespoons (1 1/2 ounces) Cachaça to each, stirring well.
Step 3: Make 6 more cocktails in same manner. For ease, combine all the ingredients in a pitcher.
Serves 6. |
