Batida

A Brazilian classic whose name means "shaken," the Batida marries cachaça with fruit juice or coconut milk and a touch of sugar over ice. The coconut version — batida de coco — is the most beloved, turning the country's sugarcane spirit into a creamy, tropical cooler. Born of beachside tradition rather than any single bar, it's Brazil's gentler answer to the Caipirinha.
