PINEAPPLE CACHAçA COCKTAIL RECIPE BY TASTY
Cachaça is a brazilian distilled spirit that translates to "sugarcane liquor" from Portuguese. Not to be mistaken with a mojito highball, this cachaça cocktail brings you the freshness of muddled mint leaves and the vibrant tropical flavor of the grilled pineapple garnish.

Steps:
- Make the brown sugar simple syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cold water and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer, then cook until the sugar is dissolved, 5-7 minutes. Remove the pot from heat and let the syrup cool completely.
- Heat a griddle pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, grill each slice of pineapple for 2-3 minutes per side, until beginning to caramelize and grill marks appear. Let cool. Once cooled, cut each round into 6 wedges.
- While the pineapple cools, make the cocktail: In a tall glass, muddle the mint leaves and lime juice.
- In a large punch bowl, combine the cachaça, pineapple juice, and brown sugar simple syrup. Mix in the muddled mint leaves and lime juice.
- Immediately before serving, stir in the ice and grilled pineapple wedges, reserving some for garnishing the glasses.
- To serve, pour into glasses and garnish with grilled pineapple wedges.
- Enjoy!
