As Caipirinha is Brazil’s national cocktail let me share the recipe:
- Lime – squeezed
- Raw sugar – 1-2 teaspoons (sometimes none
) - Cachaça - 4cl (or more)
- Ice or crushed ice
The trick is to make sure that you do not use one of the exported Cachaça’s (namely Pitu or 51), but a high quality one. Don’t know yet where to get them back in Austria, but we shall see.
The second important item to consider is to make sure there is a bit of Brazilian flair while enjoying the drink, I recommend playing the official #ibmcsc brazil 13 team song:

Seems to be everyone’s song this year, globally. I guess that makes it the perfect song for a global CSC team

Yeah, but interestingly the Brazilians do not like this song at all. Only for the gringas…

Very cool when you are back in Brazil you must practice caipirinha at office:)

I see you are getting familiar with caipirinhas. Now try caipifruta.

@Larisa – we will for sure do that *after* office hours…
@Gorazd – we already tried, especially Passion Fruit is very delicious, but not as good as the original one…
