Indulge in the essence of Brazilian tradition with the iconic Caipirinha cocktail. This timeless concoction blends zesty lime, the sweetness of sugar, and the robust kick of cachaça. Whether preparing for a small gathering or a larger crowd, this recipe ensures a genuine taste of Brazil.
For one or two classic Caipirinhas, you can easily prepare the mixture in a single glass. For three or four, opt for a double glass. When serving a larger group, follow the same measurements as the initial recipe.
Did you know that Caipirinha is considered a typical Paulista aperitif?
Some individuals elevate the preparation of Caipirinha to a ritual, even having a dedicated pestle for muddling the lime. Naturally, this pestle should not be the same one used for garlic, of course!
