Whether it\u2019s the Rabo de Galo, popularized first as a shot in Brazilian botecos (local dive bars), or the country\u2019s frothy take on the Moscow Mule, an ingenious way to localize an international drink, the constituents of Brazil\u2019s emergent canon of cocktails all find a way to celebrate national identity in the glass. You\u2019re likely familiar with the refreshing Caipirinha, but there\u2019s so much more to Brazilian drinking than just one cacha\u00e7a cocktail. Here are six recipes to know.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Shortly after S\u00e3o Paulo bartender Arnaldo Hirai created the Macuna\u00edma<\/a>, an unlikely mix of cacha\u00e7a, Fernet-Branca and lime, it took off across the country. Hirai, who developed the drink to celebrate Brazil as the host of soccer\u2019s World Cup, credits its rapid spread to its simplicity<\/a>: \u201cAlmost every bar has cacha\u00e7a, lime and a dusty bottle of Fernet on the shelf,\u201d he says, and the drink is simply shaken then served in a rocks glass without ice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rabo de Galo<\/a>, a mix of aged cacha\u00e7a, sweet vermouth and Cynar, is also a play on words: In Portuguese, \u201cgalo\u201d means \u201crooster\u201d (or \u201ccock\u201d), and \u201crabo\u201d means \u201ctail.\u201d The simple drink was born in the 1950s<\/a> when Italian vermouth producer Cinzano first introduced the concept of a mixed-spirit shot at local bars in S\u00e3o Paulo, and it quickly evolved into a beloved drink served on the rocks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though the Moscow Mule does not originate in Brazil\u2014<\/span>the classic is likely American in origin<\/span><\/a>\u2014this preparation, made with a gingery foam topper, has gone on to have a life of its own across the country. Born of necessity when affordable options for the requisite ginger beer were still unavailable in Brazil, Marcelo Serrano\u2019s version<\/a> cleverly sidesteps the need for any mixer. His recipe has become the go-to preparation. \u201cI still like the original recipe,\u201d <\/span>he notes<\/span><\/a>, \u201cbut my clients never let me prepare it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The most famous Brazilian drink worldwide, this cacha\u00e7a classic<\/a> is a summer standby for a reason. The combination of the spirit, freshly muddled lime and cane sugar has been around for centuries, and in its long life, has spawned many riffs, like the Caipisake (made with sake, a nod to the country\u2019s Japanese immigrant population).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

For S\u00e3o Paulo\u2013born bartender Diogo Sevilio, incorporating the <\/span>Maria Mole<\/span><\/a> onto drink menus is \u201ca form of resistance.\u201d Once popular in the 1980s across the country, the classic combined an affordable, cacha\u00e7a-like sugarcane distillate and vermouth and took inspiration from a local dessert of the same name. Although the drink fell out of favor, it has seen a comeback and is now commonly made with brandy. Sevilio\u2019s version<\/a> keeps the two-ingredient structure, but swaps in Cognac.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Brazil\u2019s emergent cocktail culture, which birthed many of the drinks on this list, left the <\/span>Batida<\/span><\/a>, a fruity, blended drink often served on the beach, in flux. The Batida\u2019s classic inclusion of sweetened condensed milk, for example, is controversial given the inclination among bartenders to avoid making anything too sweet. But the drink, a showcase of local ingredients from coconuts to cashew fruit, still has a place in the country, and in recent years, has seen a resurgence. <\/span>According to bartender Edu Tavares<\/span><\/a>, it\u2019s difficult to understand why the crowd-pleasing, creamy cocktail ever disappeared from cocktail lists in the first place.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n
