You may want to remove any seeds before muddling ... unless you're fond of straining them through your teeth.
- Add 2 to 3 heaping tablespoons of sugar to the top of the lime slices (Brazilians like it VERY sweet)
- Muddle (mash) sugar and limes together well
- Add 2 to 3 shots (ounces) cachaça
- Stir well to thoroughly dissolve the sugar, add cracked ice, stir, enjoy ... and think tropical thoughts!
