A delightful twist on the classic Brazilian Caipirinha, this cocktail is perfect for summer evenings.
Place the lime pieces and sugar in the bottom of a cocktail shaker.
Cut the lime into small wedges to make muddling easier and more effective.
Muddle the lime and sugar together to release the lime juice and mix with the sugar.
Press firmly but gently to avoid over-muddling, which can release bitterness from the lime peel.
Add the crushed ice and cachaça to the shaker.
Fill the shaker halfway with ice for optimal chilling and mixing.
Shake the mixture well to combine and chill.
Shake vigorously for about 10 seconds to ensure proper mixing.
Pour the cocktail into an old-fashioned glass, including the ice.
Use a strainer if you prefer a cleaner presentation without lime pieces.
Garnish with a fresh lime wedge and serve immediately.
For an extra touch, rim the glass with sugar before pouring the cocktail.
