How Do You Make Caipirinha (Brazilian Drink)?
This is how to make the famous Caipirinha. It is 100% Brasilian. All the girls love it, because if done right you can’t taste any alcohol! Great for Barbacues and parties! Step 1 Cut the lime into eight wedges (not slices). Wedges are easier to muddle. Step 2 Muddle the lime over the sugar. “Crush the lime lightly” letting the lime juice fill into the cup. You should see a small about of lime juice at the bottom. Step 3 Fill the glass with ice cubes. Fill half full of ice cubes. Step 4 Pour in the cachaça. (vodka works too) I have never seen Cachaca in America, this is why I also suggested Vodka. It is close to Cachaca and is just as good. Step 5 Stir. Stir for a few mins. Remember, the perfect caipirinha is well balanced with sugar, lime and cachaça (vodka). Never let one flavor stand out more than one of the others. Step 6 Serve with a straw.
