Tips:
- Use ripe, juicy cherries: This will ensure that your caipirinha is packed with flavor.
- Muddle the cherries gently: You don't want to crush the pits, as this can release a bitter flavor.
- Use a good quality cachaça: This is the key ingredient in a caipirinha, so don't skimp on quality.
- Add sugar to taste: Some people like their caipirinhas tart, while others prefer them sweeter. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.
