Swig Brazilian Spirits at Gaucho’s Prime

Have you ever heard of a Caipirinha, the national cocktail of Brazil? Gaucho’s Prime has an entire menu section dedicated to these mixed drinks that bring together the fresh muddled fruit of your choice (kiwi, passionfruit and strawberry are just a few of the options) and cachaça, a native spirit of Brazil.

For a unique take on an old favorite, indulge in the Alma Margarita. This tasty treat combines Patron Silver Tequila, freshly squeezed lime and lemon, a fresh cranberry muddle and rosemary simple syrup (all accentuated by a salt rim) to deliver herbal, citrus-y notes in each swallow. If Moscow Mules are usually your jam, check out Gaucho Prime’s tropical take, the Alma Moscow Mule. This fruity interpretation of the beloved classic uses Veev Acai Spirit Liquor and Blue Berry Vodka alongside the traditional ginger beer and fresh lime.
