The Caipirinha, which has swept the nation as the newest, hottest cocktail and is coveted by mixologists from cityscape to seaside, is now available across the nation. Leblon's Caipirinha Mix is made from fresh juicy limes and pure cane sugar. Each bottle makes about eight cocktails.
Conjure the spirit of Brazil this spring and Be Brazilian: Combine two parts Caipirinha Mix and one part Leblon Cachaca with ice. Stir or shake, and serve on the rocks with a lime wedge garnish. For a "party punch," pour two bottles of mix and one bottle of Leblon Cachaca in a punch bowl. Add ice.
Leblon Cachaca is winner of the Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and seven consecutive medals with the title "Best Cachaca" in the same competition from 2006 to 2012. Handcrafted in Minas Gerais, Leblon leads cachaca sales in Hollywood, New York, Miami, London, and Paris and is considered to be the best white cachaca on the market.
Leblon's non-alcoholic mix is in stores ($9.99) and at Leblon.com ($12+S&H). To experience Leblon, a noble, pure spirit that is anything but the typical, harsh industrial cachaca or to buy the mix, visit www.leblon.com.
About Leblon Natural Cane Cachaca
Leading a Brazilian invasion worldwide with its amazingly delicious, finely distilled spirit, Leblon Natural Cane Cachaca (pronounced ka-SHA-sa) is already the favorite alambique Cachaca in top venues in Brazil, where cachaca is the National Spirit. It is also the key ingredient to the Caipirinha (pronounced kai-pur-EEN-ya), the wildly popular, muddled lime cocktail and national treasure of Brazil. Winner of "Best Cachaca" a record five times, as well as an unprecedented seven consecutive gold medals from 2006 to 2012 at San Francisco's World Spirits Competition, Leblon is handcrafted and produced at the Maison Leblon in Minas Gerais, Brazil's fertile agricultural heartland. Overseen by Gilles Merlet, one of the world's preeminent Master Distillers, Leblon's special quality is achieved with painstaking attention to every detail in the production process, from the cutting of the cane, fermentation, and distillation, to the filtering, blending, and resting in XO Cognac casks for up to six months. The result is a lively, fruity nose with complex layers of flavor and an ultra-smooth finish that is perfect alone, mixed with fruit juice, in a traditional Caipirinha, or as a Brazilian twist to any cocktail. Leblon is available in all 50 U.S. States. (www.leblon.com)
