  • Mojitos are made with white rum and Caipirinhas are made with Cachaça. But both require lime, sugar and some tender loving care with a pestle of some sort.

  • Can you use vodka to make this? Because I wanted to make this drink for my birthday coming up in a week with my brother so I was just wondering can you?

  • Certainly! Though we jokingly call it a 'Caipirovshka'. And you can also make it with White Rum, which we call a 'Caipirissima'. Happy Birthday.

  • Hey, give me a break. You try and do it to camera... I'll do it again some time soon. In the meantime, listen to goldstar60, and remove the pith.

  • epa? qual?

  • este vídeo bom, mas existem outros melhores que você almeja uma caipirinha assim em homenagem a este vídeo que eu vou preparar um

  • Look, mate ... that video you struck out. You must take the bitter part of the lemon! Cachaça is the same 51! But there are other even better! (SANDRO-Arapongas-BRAZIL)

  • Oi Nando! Voce ja tentou fazer caipirinha com uma pinga chamada Sabatiga? Ela eh uma pinga cara, envelhecida, mas "desce macia" e eh gostosa ateh pura! Dei de presente para um medico carioca de vive aqui nos US e ele adorou!Thanks for the recipe! I live in US for 10 years now and miss all these great dishes from Brazil you show on your videos. Voce eh brasileiro? You seem to have an British accent and your English is super! Where did you learn to speak so well either languages? :-)

  • @jppa22586 51 is like the cheapest Cachaça here (not quite sure by now as there is a trend here in glamourizing extremely popular stuff makin them much more expensive). I like Salinas and 3 Coronéis. The latter is very smooth.

    I agree with people that say 51 is good for caipirinha but when drank pure 51 gives me headaches...

    For foreigners: you should try to import 51 rather than buying it locally because 51 is extremely overrated outside Brasil. (It costs here about 3 dollars a lt)

  • @stevethemonk I'm used to saying/spelling Caipiroska, but I liked 'Caipirovshka' sounds more like russian... But... I think in Brazil we are used to say Caipiroska because it is more familiar to the way our language sound.

    @nandocuca I like the way you publicize brazillian culture, keep up the good work!

  • @nandocuca Not to nitpick, but in case someone should want to look up these drinks: the correct spelling is Caipiroska. Abraço.
