Assoc. : 0 * Exported from MasterCook * Caipirinha Recipe By : Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time : 0:00 Categories : Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 spoons of sugar -- (1 to 2) 1 lime cachaça liquor (pinga) crushed icecubes 1. Cut the lime into thin slices (8ths and leave some of the peel) and put at least four slices of it in a glass for whiskey and add the sugar. 2. Add the crushed icecubes to the glass. 3. Now add the pinga (a distilled drink from sugarcane). Make sure the alcohol just covers the lime pieces and mash this mixture well, using a little wooden stick or pettle (buy this with your bottle of pinga). If you really can't find any pinga, try vodka or a good jamaican rum, same effect only the taste will be different...).When the alcohol is slightly green and the limes look pretty wrecked, it's ready for (ab)use. An alternative (faster) way of making the caipirinha is to put the mixture of cachaça, limes, sugar and crushed ice in a shaker and pretend if you're marching in a samba band.... - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Per serving: 20 Calories (kcal); trace Total Fat; (3% calories from fat); trace Protein; 7g Carbohydrate; 0mg Cholesterol; 1mg Sodium Food Exchanges: 0 Grain(Starch); 0 Lean Meat; 0 Vegetable; 1/2 Fruit; 0 Fat; 0 Other Carbohydrates Nutr.
