O Elderflower Caipirinha é uma variação contemporânea do coquetel nacional do Brasil, substituindo o açúcar tradicional por cordial de flor de sabugueiro para adicionar uma doçura floral delicada à base de cachaça e limão socado. A cachaça, o destilado brasileiro de cana-de-açúcar, traz um caráter herbáceo e ligeiramente vigoroso que combina lindamente com a aromática flor de sabugueiro. A bebida é construída diretamente no copo sobre gelo picado.
History & Origins
The classic Caipirinha has been Brazil's national cocktail since at least the early 20th century, traditionally made with cachaca, lime, and sugar. The elderflower variation is a modern European-influenced adaptation that became popular in the 2000s as St-Germain and elderflower cordials gained wide availability in the cocktail world. Its precise origin is disputed.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: fresh muddled lime, grassy and slightly funky cachaca, and the floral, honeyed scent of elderflower. Palate: vibrant and citrus-forward with the earthy cachaca spirit balanced by the aromatic sweetness of the elderflower cordial. Finish: clean, floral, and tart with a lingering lime zest.
Pro Tip
Muddle the lime aggressively in the glass to release both the juice and the aromatic oils from the peel, and pack the glass with crushed ice for the authentic Caipirinha presentation.
