Dark Caipirinha
The Dark Caipirinha is a rustic, unfiltered take on Brazil's national cocktail, swapping white sugar for rich Demerara to give the muddled lime and cachaça an earthy, caramel-tinged sweetness. The raw sugar and crushed lime create a drink that's vibrant and tart, while the funky, grassy backbone of cachaça keeps it grounded and characterful. Simple in method, but complex in flavour.
