Not to be confused with the mojito, another favorite amongst cocktail lovers, the caipirinha is Brazil\u2019s national cocktail. It is essentially made with about 3-4 lime wedges, 2 teaspoons of sugar, crushed ice and 2.5 oz of cacha\u00e7a per drink, and served on the rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just like rum, the cacha\u00e7a is made from the sugarcane. The main difference between the two being the elements from which they are processed, cacha\u00e7a being from the fresh-pressed juice of the sugarcane and the rum from the molasses, a byproduct of the sugar refining process. The cacha\u00e7a and the rum are also aged differently. The cacha\u00e7a can also be served on the rocks, or as a rum substitute on many cocktails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s our take on a quick and easy yet traditional caipirinha:<\/h6>\n\n\n\n

Slice the limes and put them in a lowball glass along with the sugar. Muddle both ingredients and add the ice on top. Add the cacha\u00e7a and stir. If you want to remain as true as possible to the Brazilian original, stay closer to the lime flavor and low on the alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know? There is a variant of the caipirinha, but it uses vodka instead of cacha\u00e7a. It has become quite popular after the vodka gained popularity especially due to the rising variety in brands of vodka. This cocktail is called the caipiroska<\/strong> (or caipivodka) and only requires 2 oz vodka, \u00bd lime cut into wedges, 1 teaspoon brown sugar and crushed ice for each glass.
