Thread: Cocktails of Brazil

Can someone please tell me what the best cocktails are and where they can be found in Brazil? I heard the fresh fruit drinks mixed with different liquors are out of this world. This
would be a great place to post all of your favorite cocktails. Thanks everyone!

Try the Brazilian Ricky. This a is zesty, sparkling, and bubbly, while exploding with the fresh citrus of juicy lemons, limes, and oranges. However, what makes this citrus elixir stand out is VeeV, the world’s first spirit made from Brazil’s national fruit.
Ingredients:

2 oz. VeeV Açai Spirit
1 Lemon Slice
1 Lime Slice
1 Orange Slice
3 oz. Tonic
1Citrus Wheel


Preparation:

Shake VeeV and citrus wedges with ice and pour into a highball glass adding additional ice if necessary. Top with tonic. Stir and garnish with the citrus wheel. Enjoy!

Check out this Brazilian Sangria recipe I found while exploring the web. It is surely one that will blow your mind. It can contain your favorite fruit, a bit of cachaca, brandy, wine and, here's the kicker, absinthe.

Ingredients:

fresh seasonal fruit (recommend: strawberry, lime, orange, kiwi and passionfruit)
1/2 oz Lucid Absinthe
1 1/4 oz cachaca
1/2 oz Spanish brandy
1/2 oz orange liqueur
1 oz red wine

Preparation:

In a cocktail shaker, thoroughly muddle the fruit with Lucid, cachaca, brandy, and orange liquor.
Pour into wine glass.
Float red wine on top of cocktail.
Stir and enjoy.

Try to mix Vodka, Ice Soda, and Gooseberry...a very good drink!
