    NorthwestGal's Note:

    I purchased a bottle of Brazilian cachaca during the holidays, but I only had one cocktail recipe that included cachaca. So I started looking for other cachaca-based cocktail recipes. That's how I stumbled upon this Brazilian drink in "The Bartender's Guide", and I really liked it. It's fruity, sweet and quite refreshing.

      I liked how fruity this was, but I'm embarassed to say that this hit me really hard. I haven't had cachaca in years, and I had forgotten how strong it is (for someone who really doesn't drink, anyway lol). Glad I splurged on the more expensive cachaca, because it was really smooth. I would definitely make this again (especially now that I'm the proud owner of a big ol' bottle of cachaca), but I think I would need to cut it with a bit more fruit juice to make this a bit less dangerous for the alco-weenie that I am, lol. Thanks for posting! Made for the Emerald City Shakers for ZWT7

      I loved this drink. I didn't use the full amount of grenadine. I just put a little bit without measuring. It was so yummy. Thanks NorthwestGal :) Made for Count Dracula and His Hot Bites for ZWT7
