One may enjoy a delicious caipirinha. This drink is Brazil's national cocktail, made with cachaça pronounced [kaËÊasÉ], sugar and lemon. Cachaça is Brazil's most common distilled alcoholic beverage. While both rum and cachaça are made from sugarcane-derived products, most rum is made from molasses. Specifically with cachaça, the alcohol results from the fermentation of sugarcane juice that is afterwards distilled.
