Caipirissima is Caipirinha with white rum instead of Cachaça. In Latin America they produce a lot of rum, it was a good idea to create a Caipirinha variation with it. Caipirissima consists of white rum, limes, cane sugar and a bunch of crushed ice. It tastes very similar to Caipirinha, a sour mixture with a lot of alcohol and a crunching finish. Entertainment is always provided, most people love to stir and play around with the straws. The rattling of the ice provides a pleasant atmosphere.
In Brazil they prepare Caipirissima with white cane sugar. Brown cane sugar passes less cleaning steps during production and contains therefore additional flavourings. Caipirissima tastes at least as good with brown cane sugar then with white one. More important is the grain size, the bigger the crunchier, many people like that.
You should use untreated limes. Otherwise, wash treated limes under hot water and rob them dry. That helps a lot to reduce the amount of the poisonous pesticides that are possibly deposited on top of the lime peel.
A great choice in summer, as an alternitve to Caipirinha. With hot temperatures Caipirissima always becomes a hit, independent of your guests gender, taste and age. Caipirissima always goes down well with everybody.

Decoration / Serving
Caipirissimas look really great.
Caipirissima you serve in Gibraltar glasses or alternatively in tumbler glasses. You definitively have to add straws, black and buckling resistant ones are the best choice. Further decorations are unusual.

Personally, I prefer Caipirinha with cachaca, but yesterday there was only white rum available and we were quite happy with the result.
