Alcohol related advice so good, that if you take heed, you won't need anyone else around to enjoy the experience... You can even be alone in your parents house, where you are "temporarily" living, while you "save money."
It's Wednesday night, and you all know what that means...Tonight, as we ever-so-gracefully pound out our weekly alcohol related post, we are whimsically whistling (how 'bout that for some alliteration) The Girl From Ipanema. Why is this? Because tonight in the spirit of Brazil, we are enjoying a pitcher of the national drink of South America's largest nation. This would of course be the Caipirinha.
Samba, Pele, bronzed and buxom beach beauties (we're going off), are all fine and dandy, especially the beauties, but when we think of Brazil--the first thing that comes to mind is the Caipirinha. It is a wonderful refreshing drink best enjoyed either relaxing at the Copa Cabana or alone in your bedroom looking at pictures of the Copa Cabana. Here's how to make them:
1.) Grab a bunch of limes and cut them into wedges.
2.) Poor some sugar onto the limes and smash it all together. We recommend powdered sugar.
3.) Completely fill glass with ice.
4.) Add Cachaca, a Brazilian liquor similar to white rum, and stir. We recommend Pitu.
5.) Enjoy
Other fruits such as strawberry or kiwi can be substituted for the limes. We've never tried kiwi, but strawberry is bomb!!!
Also, a slightly different version of the drink is preferred by our editor at NLNC and we'd be remiss not to mention it. It is called the Kitepirinha, and this is how to make it:
1.) Clumsily push limes, sugar and ice to the side.
2.) Unscrew cap from Cachaca, and if at a party -- either insult someone near or perform a stupid little dance. If at home -- offer some to mom.
3.) Take a healthy pull directly from bottle.
4.) Kind of enjoy
