Guava Caipirinha (Brazilian Guava Cocktail Recipe)

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

GATHER THE INGREDIENTS

Step 2

MAKE THE GUAVA NECTAR REDUCTION

Step 3

Pour 2 Cups of Guava Nectar into a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until it reduces by half (about 10-15 minutes). Let it cool down.

Step 4

For every 8-oz cup of Guava Nectar, you get approximately 1/2 cup (4 ounces) of Guava reduction or the equivalenrt to One-Caipirinha cocktail. This recipe uses 2-cups of Guava Nectar, so you get Two-Caipirinhas. Refrigerate any leftover nectar.

Step 5

PREPARE THE COCKTAIL: Begin by cutting the lime lengthwise into 2 pieces, then cut again in half. As shown in the photo, you'll end up with 4 longitudinal quarter pieces. Trim off the white membrane separating the sections. Cut crosswise into 8 pieces and place them in your serving glass.

Step 6

Add the sugar, then use a muddler to press down on the lime and sugar. This releases the lime juice and mixes it with the sugar, creating a balanced, tangy-sweet base.

Step 7

Add the homemade guava nectar reduction and Cachaça, then fill the glass with ice. Stir everything together with a cocktail spoon. Take a sip and let this tropical cocktail take you straight to the beaches of Brazil!

Step 8

GARNISH AND ENJOY. CHEERS!
