How to Make Caipiroska

  1. Cut one lime into 4 wedges. Juice 2 wedges into an old-fashioned or highball glass.
  2. Add 2 teaspoons of sugar (or to taste) and one of the remaining lime wedges to the glass.
  3. Gently muddle the sugar and lime wedge until the sugar is mostly dissolved. Be careful not to over-muddle, as this will make the drink bitter.
  4. Pour in 2 ounces of vodka.
  5. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  6. Fill the glass with crushed ice.
  7. Stir gently to chill the drink slightly and melt some of the ice.
  8. Garnish with the remaining lime wedge and serve immediately.
