Description:

EasySiteRecipe_24832This is a yummy drink I fell in love with while dining at a local Brazilian restaurant. If you like your drinks a little sweeter you can increase the sugar. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 oz. Cachaça
1/4 lime (sliced)
2 tbsp superfine sugar

Directions:

Place the sliced lime and sugar in a rocks glass and muddle well.
Add cachaça and ice and stir. Garnish with a slice of lime.
Tip: 1 packet of Splenda or Equal can be used in place of superfine sugar.
Note: Bahama Breeze uses Leblon brand of cachaça in this recipe and guarapo (fresh squeezed sugar cane juice) instead of sugar.
