How do you pronounce caipirinha?

[irishsara]

The delicious, tasty drink?

For some reason I can't work it out in my mind.

[Beener]

So funny you posted this because I drank one this weekend on my date with my hubs and I said to the waitress, like a fool, "I can't pronounce it but this one" and pointed to the menu. I was that girl.

I can't remember how she pronounced it because it wasn't my first drink of the night.

[onehitwonder]

I say cap ah rain ya. I have no idea if this is correct, but I've always gotten the right drink.

Yes, this is how I say it.  I haven't had one in AGES, thanks for the reminder

[TrudyCampbell]

I say it like Chels except with more of a "ka" and not a "Kai", but I am probably wrong!

[carawestt]

What is this drink? I've never heard of it.

I say it like Chels. It is my all time favorite drink! Tasty and VERY potent

It's cachaca (ka-shah-sa), limes, and sugar. No mixer, no superfluous crap. Pure, amazing deliciousness.

[AndyCohen]

It's Brazilian and delicious!

[thedahliharpa]

Now I must seek this out. Maybe in Vegas since I have no other adult outings planned and that sounds like the place to do it.

Kai-purr-een-ya...I had many of these delicious drinks made by an even more delicious Argentine man in Costa Rica a few years back. Oh, the memories!!!

I want one right now.

Made by the delicious Argentine.

Without his shirt.

Heck, might as well take off the pants also.

PS...I have had a few glasses of wine, so my posts aren't censored.

I snorted and Patrick shushed me, because he's watching GoT on his computer, lol.

I never make people laugh (well, they probably laugh at me for being lame!), so I take much pride in making you snort!

Tell Patrick to take off his shirt and pants and make the baby a caipirinha. Send one down to CA while you're at it.

Will a half German/half Irish man work as a stand in for a shirtless Argentine?

When you can't find an Argentine, a German-Irish works.

[steph196]

As long as he makes a good drink!

Between this and ladybug dropping F bombs tonight I'd say it's getting a bit rowdy in your part of the county.

It's getting real in the Whole Foods parking lot.

Mmmmmmmm favorite drink!

Mh and i drank our way through the Azores on these. Yummmmmmm

[unclejesse]

You don't pronounce it, you drink it!


Preferably on a sandy beach, listening to the waves crash.

Although Bahama Breeze is a close second.

Pitu seems to be the most popular brand around here.

So delicious. I think of it as kind of like a mojito but without the mint. Mint gets stuck in my teeth so I strongly prefer caipirinhas!

The 51 brand sucks. Pitu (with the crawfish) is the brand you see a lot, but Leblon (not pictured because we're out) is my favorite. It's a slightly sweet booze that's the same strength as rum and vodka and has a nice, clean flavor. It's my favorite hard liquor.

ETA @andycohen beat me The green bottle in her picture is my favorite.

If you come over this summer, I promise to make you a caipirinha...or several!

it's kai-pee-reen-yah with a rolling r
