The perfect capirinha

Some people like caiprinhas a bit sweeter, some like it stronger and others, like myself, like it awesomer (a perfect balance between sweet, strong and limeny)! This recipe is to the most awesome capirinha you can have:

3 limes - 1.5 for juice and 1.5 for decoration
5 Table spoons of white sugar
3 doses of cachaça (or vodka for caipiroskas)

Cut the first 1.5 limes into 12 pieces and chuck them into your cocktail shaker. Cut the other 1.5 limes into small cubes (roughly 16-20 small piece each lime). Place each of these little pieces into an old fashion glass along with cubes of ice. The glass should be filled with ice and lime pieces til the top on a 50/50 balance. Take it to the freezer. While the glass stays there for a little, add the sugar to the cocktail shaker and start squashing the limes until you get quite a bit of juice out of them. Add the cachaça (or the vodka for that matter (which is also awesome, maybe even better than cachaça)), close it and shake it well. Take the glass out of the freezer and add only the liquid content of the of the cocktail shaker to it.

Tip: You can make more caipirinha juice and use the same content of the glass just adding more ice cubes to it.
