CRISTO'S
CAIPIRINHA
1
lime
2 ounces choice
fruit
2 ounces of cachaça
Sugar to taste
Ice cubes
|
Wash the lime and roll it on the
board to loosen the juices. Cut the lime into wedges and place them
in a glass. Sprinkle with the sugar and crush the pieces (pulp side
up) with a pestle. Just enough to release the juice, otherwise it'll
get bitter. Add the cachaça and stir to mix. Add the ice
and stir again.
To make a
pitcher of caipirinha multiply the amount by the number of people
in your party. You can substitute cachaça if it's not available
with some good vodka or rum.
Substituting with
vodka and you have a caipiroshka.
Substituting with
white rum and you will have a caipiríssima.
Substituting with
sake and it's called the Rio Rage.
Daring? Change up
the recipe for caipirinha by adding tangerine, the Brazilian fruit
called lima, strawberries, kiwi, fresh passion fruit with mint,
passion fruit with pitanga, etc. |
