Strawberry Kiwi Caipirinha
If you find yourself daydreaming about sipping cocktails while lounging poolside, this drink is your passport to paradise – no plane ticket required! Let’s get those taste buds tingling!
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe kiwi, peeled and sliced
- 3-4 fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 2 tablespoons sugar, or to taste
- 2 ounces cachaça (Brazilian sugarcane spirit)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- Crushed ice
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- In a sturdy glass, muddle the sliced kiwi, strawberries, and the sugar together until the fruits release their juices and the mixture is well combined. This is where you get to unleash your inner bartender!
- Add the lime wedges to the glass and muddle gently. You want the lime juice to blend without pulverizing the wedges completely – we’re mixing drinks, not a lime smoothie!
- Fill the glass with crushed ice, reaching up to the rim. It’s like a mini iceberg, perfect for keeping your drink chilly and delightful.
- Pour the cachaça over the ice and give it a gentle stir. This is the sweet spirit that brings the party to life!
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves if you’re feeling fancy. They add a lovely aromatic touch – plus, it looks great for the ‘gram!
- Grab a straw or a spoon, and enjoy your Strawberry Kiwi Caipirinha responsibly while imagining yourself on a tropical beach somewhere. Cheers to that!
