Classic Brazilian Caipirinha

🍋 Mari's Classic Caipirinha (Ep. 48)

This time, we're joined by Mari to make one of the most Brazilian drinks there is: the caipirinha! 🍋🧊

A super practical, refreshing recipe that's easy to make at home — perfect for hot days, getting friends together, and bringing a little piece of Brazil to every moment. ❤️

Ingredients

• 🍋 4 limes
• 🍬 3 tablespoons sugar
• 🥃 60 ml (about 2 oz) cachaça
• 🧊 Plenty of ice

Instructions

1. Peel the limes, removing the white pith — it makes the drink more bitter. (If you prefer, you can use the lime with the peel on, muddling it a little more gently.)
2. Cut the limes into pieces and add them to the glass.
3. Add the sugar and muddle the limes well with a pestle, until plenty of juice is released.
4. Fill with plenty of ice.
5. Add the cachaça (about 60 ml) and stir well.
6. Serve immediately, well chilled.

Tip:

The thinner the lime's peel, the more juice it releases — pick thin-skinned limes for an even juicier caipirinha.
