Guava Caipirinhas

Have you ever had a guava?  I had my first one in Costa Rica almost ten years ago and fell in love with their unique flavor, that is hard to describe until you taste one!  While we were in Hawaii a couple of weeks go, my love for the fruit reawakened with all of the guava that was readily available to us wherever we went!  I knew I needed to find some when we returned home!  While it is hard to find the pink variety here in Texas, I was able to find the white flesh variety at my local grocery store!  Both are delicious by the way, so I snagged a bag of them!  I used them to create my guava caipirinhas, which is a twist on one of my favorite Brazilian cocktails!

Caipirinha Crush: My Diary of Us

Caipirinha Crush

Remember that Brazilian drink that I told you I drank while we were in Miami?  It's basically like the Margarita of Brazil and I'm slightly obsessed.  Since I have had a hard time getting back into the swing of things from vacation I decided that I would whip up a batch of my new favorite drink and pretend I am still on vacay.  That's acceptable right?  These caipirinha crush's are so easy to make and super refreshing too.

It's made with a Brazilian rum called Cachaca which is made from sugar cane, you sweeten it with sugar or agave in this case, and lots of fresh lime juice.  If you love margaritas, I am going to go ahead and say that you will love this drink and it just might...just might...give your margarita a run for it's money.
