I knew that I was in for a good time when I read the words “Brazil’s national cocktail”. My friend Dan actually introduced us to these when he returned from a trip to his motherland bearing Cachaça. The caipirinha started out as a common cold remedy in Brazil, but later became the cocktail of choice once they removed the garlic and added cachaça.
