The Banana Batida Twist on the Classic Caipirinha Cocktail

“You start hearing about the Batida Paulista—cachaça, lime, sugar and ice—in the 1930s,” says cocktail historian Dave Wondrich. “They are batida because they’re ‘beaten’ with ice in a cocktail shaker,” while a Caipirinha is built in a glass. This version adds tropical flavors of coconut and banana.

Ingredients

2 ounces cachaça, preferably Avuá Amburana
1 ounce Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut
1 ounce fresh lime juice
½ ounce banana liqueur
1 dash Angostura Bitters

Directions

Combine ingredients in cocktail shaker. Shake well, and strain into rocks glass with ice.
