Although the Caipirinha has been well known for some time in New York and Miami, the cocktail's popularity is growing with the international attention Brazil has been receiving as host of the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics. The Caipirinha is Brazil's official national drink—in fact, the drink is so official that in 2008 the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture published a decree outlining the criteria by which a cocktail might earn the right to call itself a Caipirinha.  

There are only three ingredients (four if you count ice) in the Caipirinha and as long as you don’t skimp on their quality, the only way you can go wrong is by not washing the lime properly.

We recommend mixing up a batch to celebrate the Opening Ceremony on August 5th!
