If you love the Caipirinha, try its Russian cousin. The Caipiroska cocktail is made with vodka, muddled limes and sugar.

Ingredients

  • 1 ounce simple syrup (or 1 tablespoon granulated white sugar)
  • 1 lime, cut into quarters
  • 2 ounces vodka
  • Garnish: 4 lime quarters

Directions

  1. 1

    Fill a rocks glass with cracked ice to chill, and set aside.

  2. 2

    Add the simple syrup (or sugar) and lime quarters to a shaker.

  3. 3

    Muddle to extract the juice without forcing the rind from the limes.

  4. 4

    Dump the ice from the rocks glass into the shaker, add the vodka, and shake until well-chilled.

  5. 5

    Pour the entire drink, including the ice, into the chilled glass, and garnish with 4 lime quarters.
