Interesting facts
According to some bartenders, it’s best to use either all white sugar or all raw or turbinado sugar when making cocktails. If you use all white sugar, your drink will be clearer in appearance, while using raw or turbinado sugar will result in a darker-coloured drink.
History of the drink
Caipiroska, also known as Caipivodka or Caipirodka, is a cocktail that’s like the traditional Brazilian Caipirinha, but instead of cachaça, it’s made with vodka. This cocktail has gained popularity in countries such as Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Argentina, and has become increasingly popular in recent years due to the diversification of international vodka options in South America.
