The buzz is starting as the Summer Olympics are about to start in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Friday. It’s hot, humid, and the best time to mix up your own drink, so what better way to celebrate then with your very own Brazilian inspired “Caipirinha“, and you don’t even need a bartender!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1¾ oz Pitú Cachaça (rum may be used as an alternative)
• Half a fresh lime (cut into wedges)
• 2 tsp. white sugar
• Crushed ice
• Slice of lime for garnish

PREPARATION:

1. Place fresh lime wedges into rocks glass and add sugar. Muddle the lime and sugar, fill rocks glass with ice and add Pitú.

2. Stir ingredients until ice starts to melt. Garnish and serve with lime slice.

For a unique Canadian twist on the traditional Caipirinha recipe, substitute the white sugar
with 1 tsp. of maple syrup.

In anticipation of the Olympics, Pitú has customized a cocktail in celebration of the events. Traditionally, the Caipirinha is the national cocktail of Brazil (and its most common distilled alcoholic beverage!), and the Cachaça spirit is the primary ingredient in the recipe.

Pitú Cachaça is available across Canada. Click here for more information.
