Caipirinha

This recipe is from Antonio Feitosa, Rafa’s dad. Caipirinha is the popular Brazilian lime drink.

One fresh lime

¼ cup (2.5 ounces) Cachaca (liquor, in the rum section?)

2 tablespoons sugar

Crushed ice

Cut the lime into slices and put in a glass. Add sugar and crush together with lime. Add Cachaca and stir. Fill with crushed ice and possibly a little cold water. The lime rind and pulp should stay in the drink.

Some of us picture ourselves floating in a pool sipping this!
