One of my favorite cocktails. Simply unique

Brazilian national cocktail Caipirinha is made from Cachaca (Portuguese: cachaça), lime and brown sugar. Cachaca is a strong alcoholic drink obtained by the distillation of an extract from sugar cane. It is from 38 to 48% and is the most common alcoholic beverage in Brazil. When prepared with vodka is kaypiroska and rum-kaypirisima.
