Recently some friends and I took a trip to a cabin for a weekend. We decided to relax, and make fun food & drinks to spoil ourselves for a couple of days. My friend Anna often raves about a special drink that the bartender at her favorite spot makes just for her. She asked for the recipe and shared the drink with us on our little trip. It was deliciously light and refreshing. Almost like a margarita, but it's brighter. It's made from a Brazilian liquor called cachaça. It was my first encounter with this stuff, but we thoroughly enjoyed our tasty beverages. Thanks Anna!
The Caipirinha:
2.5 oz. cachaça
1 oz. simple syrup
1 oz. fresh lime juice
limes wedge for garnish
Combine in a mixer with ice. Give it a good shake and serve over ice with a lime wedge.
