Raspberry Caipirinha

The Caipirinha is a brilliant three-ingredient cocktail worth exploration. Keep a bottle of raspberry shrub in the fridge to swap in for the sugar in your at-home Sours. They’ll be forever changed.

Ingredients
  

  • ¾ ounce raspberry shrub*
  • ½ fresh lime, cut into wedges
  • 2 ounces cachaça
  • Lime wedges and raspberry for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place the shrub and lime wedges into a rocks glass and muddle with a wooden pestle or wooden spoon. Fill glass with ice, pour in the cachaça, stir well and serve. Makes 1 cocktail.
    *Raspberry Shrub: Combine 2 cups raspberries with 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup champagne vinegar in a Mason jar. Cover and let sit in a cool dark place for 2 days. Fine strain into a clean glass bottle, discarding solids. Refrigerate; best if consumed within 1 month.
