Cocktail of the Month: Tangerine and Honey Caipirinha – Paradise Grille

Published June 2007

June’s cocktail of the month is the Tangerine and Honey Caipirinha from Paradise Grille in Flower Hill Promenade. A Caipirinha is a popular Brazilian drink made by muddling lime wedges and sugar together in a tall glass, then adding crushed ice and the potent Brazilian sugar-cane brandy cachaça. Paradise Grille’s tantalizing version, featured here, is served in a glass rimmed with sugar and filled with: 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp sugar, 2 oz Leblan Cachaça, ½ of a freshly muddled tangerine, ½ of a freshly squeezed lime, and a garnish of tangerine and lime wedges. 858.350.0808, paradisegrille.com   Mia Stefanko
