If you can dream it, you can do it
Der Hot Caipi / Hot Caipirinha Artikel den ich vor einiger Zeit hier geschrieben habe ist gerade einer der am meisten gelesenen Cocktail Artikel auf meiner Seite. Da ich dieses spezielle Caipirinha Rezept damals in englischer Sprache verfasst habe, möchte ich es heute nochmal auf deutsch präsentieren.
A couple of weeks ago I was in a bar around Freiburg and it was freezing cold outside. Looking through their menu card I was in a situation I could not decide for a hot drink or one of their fancy (unfortunately freezing cold) cocktails. I remembered that I got some caipi glasses a couple of years ago with some fabric applied for hot drinks. So I asked myself if it would be possible to create a hot caipirinha cocktail. And it absolutely is possible :-) I guess somebody else had that idea before so I would not say I invented it, but I want to spread the word. So have a try!
7cl Cachaca (I absolutely prefer Ypioca)
3/4 Lime
2 heaped teaspoons of brown sugar
Hot water
Cut the lime into 12 pieces and use 9 of them for the drink. Put them into a caipirinha glass and add the sugar. Squeeze the limes thoroughly with a pestle. Afterwards add the Cachaca and stir it well. Now slowly fill the glass with the hot water and stir simultaneously. Enjoy your hot caipirinha cocktail. But be aware it may hit you :-)
