Whisky Caipirinha
For quick and easy drinks try this twist on the classic Brazilian tipple caipirinha. A refreshing beverage on those warm spring evenings.

Makes 1

1 lemon

1-2 tbsp sugar

60ml (approx.) whisky

ice, crushed or cubed

Roll a lemon on a smooth surface to loosen juice. Cut out a wedge.

Place in a glass, pulp side up. Sprinkle with sugar. 

Muddle lemon with a pestle just long enough to release juices.

Add whisky and stir.

When sugar is dissolved add ice, stir again. Serve.
