How to make Brazilian Margarita

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Pre-chill a clear straight highball glass, cut half a fresh lime into small pieces, and reserve exactly one small thin lime wedge for garnish.

  2. 02

    Place the cut lime and three level barspoonfuls of finely powdered white sugar in the base of a shaker.

  3. 03

    Muddle firmly until the juice is released, the sugar starts to dissolve, and fragrant oils are expressed from the peel.

  4. 04

    Add the cachaça, blanco tequila, triple sec, optional aromatic bitters, and solid cold ice, then shake hard for 10–12 seconds.

  5. 05

    Fine-strain into the chilled highball over fresh cracked—not finely crushed—ice.

    Seat the single restrained lime wedge at the rim and serve without a salt rim or another garnish.
