Hello, @AlanaBr
I didn’t know it but looks tasty.
Thank you for sharing this. I’ll look for it in our region as well.
Olá @AlanaBr ,
Nossa que delícia, uma caipirinha vai sempre bem. Eu particularmente prefiro a minha coada. =)
Onde eu moro atualmente o pessoal adora quando eu faço, tenho algumas cachaças de Minas (morei algum tempo no sul) e sempre quando eu vou ao Brasil eu trago mais.

It looks great @AlanaBr thanks for sharing the post with us.
you have a option there @FelipePK , but in India we don’t have this.
Oh yeah @VijayaNagesh ,
This drink can actually be made with Vodka or Sake too and you can use different fruits as well. My favorite one is strawberries with passion fruit. =)
@fafaguru Cachaça is not a fruit as @AlanaBr explained on a post above yours, it’s a alcoholic beverage from Brazil.

Cachaça is a distilled beverage produced from sugar cane through a long process that includes harvesting, milling, fermentation and distillation. It is a drink that has existed mainly in Brazil since the European colonization in the XV century, but only recently has gained cultural value, since in many moments it suffered prejudices being considered drink of inverted classes, mainly of the slaves. To have a rough idea, the look and flavor would remind you of vodka, rum, or perhaps the whiskey. But as Alana has already said, cachaça has an alcoholic content of around 40% and is made in Brazil with Brazilian sugar cane. Whoever has the opportunity, I would be pleased to present the cachaças and stills of Presidente Bernardes - MG (Calambau), where you make more than twenty brands of cachaça. Hugs
A slight correction is required: Caipirinha can be made only with cachaça, according to Decree 2.314 of 1997, of which paragraph 4 of art 81 defines that "Caipirinha is the typical Brazilian drink, with alcoholic graduation of fifteen to thirty six percent in volume , at twenty degrees Celsius, obtained exclusively with Cachaça plus lemon and sugar ". Therefore, with other drinks, it must have another name, such as “caipivodka” for example.
