Brazil
April 29, 2008
The traditional Brazilian drink is prepared with cachaça. If you can't find cachaça where you live, use a good vodka. The drink will then be called caipiroshka. No vodka? Use white rum and you will have a caipiríssima. Caipirinhas made with sake are all the rage in Brazil now! Try one...
1 lemon (preferely Galego)
2 ounces of cachaça
Cane Sugar to taste
Ice cubes
Wash the lemon and roll it on the board to loosen the juices. Cut the lemon into pieces and place them in a glass. Sprinkle with the sugar and crush the pieces (pulp side up / smesh) with a pestle. We have a long, wooden one from Brazil, used to smesh garlic, but use a new one. Just enough to release the juice, otherwise it'll get bitter. Add the cachaça and stir to mix. Add the ice and stir again. It is delicious and strong!
Alternative for lemon you can use strawberry, kiwi, passion fruit, they are good!
Enjoy! But if you drink don't drive! If you drive, don't drink!
All the best!
