Cachaca drinks & tropical coctail recipes!
The most famous of brazilian alcoholic drink recipies, the Caipirinha and other cachaca drinks are starting to spread across the world. Allthough the Caipirinha has a head start there are many delicious mixed drink recipies from Brazil which should be tried!
If you wonder about how to make bar drinks here is a list of recipes.
Of course I will start with one of the cachaca drinks most relevant to this site;
Copacabana recipe
1 3/4 oz Cachaca
3/4 oz Chocolate Syrup

3/4 oz Cream

Caipirinha, number one of Brazil’s cachaca drinks:
2 fresh limes, grated and squeezed; 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 cup of cachaca, 1 cup of crushed ice. Combine sugar, grated lime peel and lime juice. Add cachaca and pour into glasses filled with ice
This one is dangerous! The lime kills all taste of the alcohol. But it’s also my favourite! Nothing os like a refreshing caipirinha.
