This is a great Brazilian cocktail that's made with sugar, lime and ice. It is very widely available in the country of Brazil and it originates from the rural areas of Sao Paulo. It often has many fruits and different liquors added to it. Often Caipirinha is drunk with a straw so that the sugar could accumulate at the bottom of the glass. It's also a great addition to an alcohol hamper if you would like to give it to someone.
