My martini-style version of the Brazilian national drink, the caipirinha. Can be made sweet or tart to taste. I like to balance the tartness of the citrus and the pungency of the alcohol with a discreet amount of sugar. Should be very smooth, not too overpowering. Great on a hot summer day! Ingredients:
2 ounces cachaca |
1 ounce vodka |
1 -2 tablespoon superfine sugar, to taste |
1 tablespoon water |
1 lime, juice of |
ice |
Directions:
1. In cocktail shaker, combine lime juice, sugar, cachaca, and vodka. 2. Add ice and shake until thoroughly chilled and frothy. 3. Serve in a chilled martini glass. |
