Similar to rum, cachaça is a spirit made from sugar cane; however, cachaça is produced in Brazil. Use it to make this tasty daiquiri alternative. The coconut and cacao perfectly complement the cachaça and will remind you of a Mounds bar. Serve cold over ice with cocoa powder for added aroma and texture.

Ingredients

  • Cocoa powder
  • 2 ounces cachaça (we like <a href=”http://www.cachaca51.com” target=”_blank”>Cachaça 51</a>)
