This traditional Brazilian drink prepared with cachaça gets even better when it's made with a very sweet tangerine, also called mexerica in São Paulo Recently tried this. The bartender told me it's similar to a Caipirinha, the only thing different is substituting the cachaça with Premium Vodka. The technique is just like making a mojito.... use a wooden spoon if you don't have a muddler ;)
Ingredients:
1/2 very sweet tangerine
2 ounces absolut citron vodka
sugar
ice cube
Directions:
1. Peel the tangerine (careful not to get the white pith) put it in the glass. Sprinkle with the sugar and crush the pieces with a pestle (or wooden spoon).
2. Add the vodka and stir to mix. Add the ice and stir again.
