Method
Preparation

Prepare the Limes
Cut the lime into 8 wedges. This will help release the juice and flavor during muddling.

Muddle the Ingredients
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the lime wedges and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the limes and sugar together. Muddle until the limes release their juice and the sugar starts to dissolve, about 30 seconds.

Add Cachaça
Pour the cachaça over the muddled lime and sugar mixture, stirring to combine the flavors.
