Caipirinha 👍

Recipe

  • 50ml Cachaça

  • ½ a lime

  • 8g sugar (2 teaspoons)

Chop the lime into 6 pieces, drop into an old-fashioned glass, and add the sugar.  Mix up with a teaspoon, trying to squeeze as much juice out of the lime as you can.  Add the cachaça and stir until all the sugar is dissolved.  Fill the glass with ice.

Delightful!  I've never had cachaça before, but it has an interesting taste, a bit like rum and a bit like tequila.  This cocktail was really refreshing and tasty, reminding me a little of the Tequila Mojito I once made.  I'll be having more of these as summer approaches.
