Drinking!! **

Hi again!

well , this weekend I went out again (like the others, of course! ;P) and on saturday, before go to the disco, I went on a pub, and in there I drunk one (and half more lol) Caipirinha.

Caipirinha is Brazil's national cocktail, made with cachaça, sugar and lime. Cachaça is Brazil's most common distilled alcoholic beberage. Like rum, it is made from sugarcane. Cachaça is made from sugarcane alcohol, obtained from the fermentation of sugarcane juice which is afterwards distilled.

the preparation of this cocktail is easy, you have to place lime and sugar into old fashioned glass and muddle. Then fill the glass with crushed ice and add the Cachaça.

The word "caipirinha" is the diminutive version of the word "caipira", which refers to someone from the countryside, being an almost exact equivalent of the American English hillbilly.
