Cachaça, a liquor made from sugarcane, gives these drinks their distinctive flavor. In Brazil it is traditional to make caipirinhas one or two at a time, as we do here. For ease of entertaining, however, you can simply combine all the ingredients in a pitcher.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The key is to use fresh limes and good quality cachaça. I also like to add a little extra sugar to taste.

Not bad, but not great. I found the drink to be a little too sour for my taste. I think I'll try adding more sugar next time.

So easy to make and so refreshing. I love that I can control the sweetness level by adding more or less simple syrup. I've also experimented with different fruits, like strawberries and oranges. Always a hit!

Absolutely delicious! I made this for a party last weekend and it was a huge hit. I used limes from my tree and the flavor was amazing. I will definitely be making this again and again.
