Dark Caipirinha.
demerara Sugar: Missing

Cachaca: Missing
Dark Caipirinha uses demerara sugar to bring a mild molasses note to cachaca and fresh lime. Muddling releases the citrus juice, while ice helps dissolve the sugar during stirring. The drink remains textured by the lime pieces, with the spirit's sugarcane aroma still clear above the sweet-sour base.
