How Do You Make A Caipirinha?
The caipirinha is not a well-known drink outside Brazil. Traditionally, it’s a strong drink made with cachaça or sometimes vodka. For a milder variation, use wine instead. • Cut the lemons or limes into several pieces. • Put the lemons or limes into a cocktail shaker. • Add sugar and mash it into the lemon wedges making a little juice. • Fill the glass with ice. Crushed ice melts faster and dilutes the drink more quickly than cubes. Add the cachaça, vodka, or wine, mix well, and serve.
