Why does it work
- The mix of lime quarters with sugar is shown juice, while they extract some of the aromatic oils from the bowl, which leads to a deeper and more lively lime taste.
Imagine the Caipirinha as the Daiquiri‘S Kühner, sun -torn Brazilian cousin.
Both drinks share a simple trio of ingredients: fresh lime, sugar and a sugar cane-based spirit. But they separate both in mind and style. Where the Daiquiri is slightly crisp and clean in the Cuban tradition, Caipirinha is set up alcoholBrazil’s national spirit. Cachaça, distilled directly from fermented sugar cane juice, has a rustic, grassy aroma with earthy undertones that give the cocktail its unmistakable character.
And in contrast to the Daiquiri, which usually only uses lime juice, Caipirinha throw in the entire lime – peel, mark and flesh – with sugar to extract oils from the bowl, and a gentle bitterness that results in complexity.
The Caipirinha is once a relative novelty outside of Brazil and is now a cocktail bar capacity all over the world. Refreshing, somewhat funky and endlessly devastable, it is one of the simplest and most satisfactory heat weather cocktails that you can do
