What is Cachaça?

Morgan Katz
The Caipirinha is Brazil's national cocktail, known for its refreshing and zesty flavors. This drink is made by muddling fresh lime with sugar and mixing it with Cachaça, a Brazilian spirit distilled from fermented sugarcane juice. Served in a highball glass, it's a simple yet delightful beverage perfect for any occasion.
