A refreshing twist on the classic Caipirinha, perfect for any occasion.
Cut the lime into small wedges and place them in the glass.
Roll the lime on the counter before cutting to release more juice.
Add the sugar to the glass and muddle it with the lime to release the juices.
Press gently to avoid making the lime bitter.
Fill the glass with crushed ice.
Crushed ice works best as it chills the drink quickly.
Pour the cachaça over the ice.
Measure the cachaça accurately for a balanced flavor.
Garnish with a piece of sugar cane and serve.
If sugar cane is unavailable, use a lime wedge for garnish.
