This drink is a unique Brazilian mix of limes and their sugar cane rum called cachaca. Simple, citric and refreshing. Ingredients:
1 fruit lime |
1 1/2 fl oz rum, distilled 80 proof |
1 tbsp sugar, cane |
2 tbsp water |
1/2 cup ice, crushed |
Directions:
1. Cut up the lime in 3/4 cubes.
2. Muddle cubbed lime with sugar. Do not over do it to avoid bitterness due to lime rinds. (rinds should never be peeled off.)
3. Pour over a shaker.
4. Pour the rum (Cachaca) in the muddling container, swish it and pour into the shaker.
5. Add ice and water.
6. Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds.
