Nova Fogo Caipirinha Cocktail Kit 750 ml

Nova Fogo Caipirinha Cocktail Kit brings Brazil's national cocktail home in one 750 ml package, pairing Nova Fogo's silver cachaça with the tools needed to build it properly. Cachaça is distilled from fresh-pressed sugarcane juice rather than molasses, giving it a grassy, vegetal edge that separates it from rum even though the two are often shelved together. On its own the spirit shows bright citrus and green sugarcane on the nose, with a clean, slightly herbal palate and a short, warming finish. This kit suits anyone who wants to make a proper caipirinha without hunting down a bottle of cachaça and a muddler separately.

How to drink Nova Fogo Caipirinha

Muddle fresh lime wedges with sugar in the included glass, fill with crushed ice, and pour the cachaça over the top for the classic caipirinha this kit is built around. Skip mixers beyond lime and sugar — cachaça's grassy character gets lost under anything heavier. A short stir just before drinking keeps the ice from watering it out too fast.
