|  THE
SPIRIT OF BRAZIL
Leblon Cachaça
Brazil’s
caipirinha may well be the next superstar cocktail, and
Cachaça is the star ingredient—a rum-like spirit
made from sugar cane. Leblon, aged in casks that once held
Cognac, tastes smoother than most—so smooth it can
be sipped straight or used in place of rum and vodka in
many other cocktails.
Price: $30
