Cachaça - This Brazilian spirit is made from fermented sugarcane juiceand it serves as the base of the cocktail.
Coconut milk or sweetened condensed milk - This adds creaminess and sweetness to the drink.
Lime juice - Freshly squeezed lime juice provides a tangy complement to the sweet and creamy ingredients.
Sugar or simple syrup - Use this to sweeten the cocktail to your preferred taste.
Ice - Crushed or cubed ice is essential for both blending and serving the cocktail.
Instructions
In a blender, combine the cachaça, coconut milk or sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, sugar or simple syrup, and ice.
