Sherry Caipirinha

Select and pre-chill a highball glass in preparation for serving.

Prepare a garnish by choosing a stirrer, such as a spoon, wooden lolly stick, or a stick cut from sugar cane.

Cut a fresh lime in half from pole to pole. Remove the core by carving a V-shaped groove. Chop one half into wedges, then cut each wedge in half again. Place these lime pieces into the base of a shaker.

Add the powdered sugar to the shaker and muddle thoroughly to extract the lime juice and dissolve the sugar.

Add the chilled Lustau Jarana Fino Sherry to the mixture.

Pour the muddled lime, sugar, and sherry mixture into the pre-chilled highball glass.

Fill the glass with small ice cubes or cracked ice. If using large ice cubes, crack them with an ice tapper before adding them to the glass.

Briefly stir the drink, then top with more ice.

Serve the cocktail with the prepared stirrer, but do not include straws.
