About the Caipirinha
---------------------------------------------------------

The caipirinha (pronounced kai-purr-REEN-yah) is the national drink of Brazil. It's the most popular cocktail in the South American country, and everyone has their own way of making it. Today, it is a hit worldwide and should be on the essential drink list of every home and pro bartender.
The caipirinha is the strongest national cocktail of Brazil.

History:

Although the origin of the drink is unknown, one account says it came about around 1918 in the region of Alentejo in Portugal, with a popular recipe made with lemon, garlic, and honey, indicated for patients with the Spanish flu. Another account is that Caipirinha is based on Poncha, an alcoholic drink from Madeira, Portugal. The main ingredient is aguardiente de cane, which is made from sugar cane. Sugar cane production switched from Madeira to Brazil by the Portuguese as they needed more land to plant it on. Before this people in Madeira had already created aguardiente de cana, which was the ancestor to cachaça.

According to historians, the caipirinha was invented by landowning farmers in the region of Piracicaba, the interior of the State of São Paulo during the 19th century as a local drink for 'high standard' events and parties, a reflection of the strong sugarcane culture in the region.


INGREDIENTS
---------------------------------------------------
2 oz ( 60 ml ) Cachaça
1 lime, Cut Into Wedges
3 Teaspoons Sugar


HOW TO MIX
---------------------------------------------------
Cut one lime into small wedges.
Place the lime and sugar into an old-fashioned glass and
Muddle well.
Top the drink with cachaça, stir well.
Fill the glass with small ice cubes or cracked ice, stir again, and garnish with a lime wheel. Serve and enjoy.

Tip:

Superfine sugar is a better choice for cocktails because the finer crystals dissolve more easily. This is particularly useful in a cocktail like a caipirinha, which doesn't have a lot of liquid or hard-core mixing.

Cheers!
