of Brazil or cachaça cachaça, lime, sugar and ice.
To prepare a glass of lemon drink is a short (Tahiti variety)
without peel in medium sized pieces, then add one or two
tablespoons of white or refined sugar, the lemon slices are
squeezed slightly, usually with a wooden mortar designed for
such a role. Then he poured the mixture before the ice cubes or
torn into pieces, between 20-50 ml. cachaça and shake. The
mixture is served in glasses and, if desired, with one or two
straws. The original preparation is prepared with lime, cut into
medium pieces, and two tablespoons sugar amarelo (sugar cane),
mixed and squeezed in a mortar. To this mixture is added to
crushed ice, between 2 and 5 cl of cachaça, crushed ice and
more.
It usually presents with straws, as the secret of the caipirinha
is the drinking liquid from the bottom of the container, so all
the juice from the lime and sugar falls to the bottom and will
gradually mix with cachaça. Drink straw is not recommended,
because the taste is not the same, is above all cachacas
undiluted and is quite strong
