Drink of the day... Caipirinha (the Brazilian national drink, I believe!)

This is an awesome drink-if you like Mojitos, you'll love this one as well. It's not too easy to find Cachaca (Brazilian sugar cane liquor), but if your town/city has any sort of a Brazilian population, you should be able to pick it up...

Caipirinha

2 tsp granulated sugar
1 lime
2 1/2 oz Cachaca

Cut the lime into 8 wedges. Put the lime and sugar into an old fashioned glass and muddle together. Fill the glass with ice. Add the Cachaca, garnish with a strip of sugarcane if desired.

Enjoy!
