HOW TO MAKE A CAIPIRISSIMA COCKTAIL 🍹 (PHOTOS + RECIPE + VIDEO TUTORIAL)
Salutations Steemit Friends!
What better way to kickoff an August weekend than with a light and refreshing libation. Fellow tipplers, allow me to introduce you to the Caipirissima Cocktail - she's one fresh drink!
Think of the Caipirissima as the sweet little sister of the Caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail. The difference between the two is that the Caipirissima is made with light rum rather than the Brazilian spirit cachaça.
Really, the Caipirissima is so quick and easy to make! Like its cousin the Cuban Mojito (learn and watch how to make a Mojito here), this is also a muddled drink but with fewer ingredients.
If you don't have light rum on hand, no worries. Instead, substitute with vodka to create a Caipivodka (a.k.a. Caipiroska).
