I was in Baltimore for a wedding last weekend and my uncle pulled out a bottle of this stuff he called Brazilian firewater.It's sugar cane brandy.
He made the most wonderful concoction with it and now I'm hooked. Has anyone else had this? I dont really drink but I LOVE this stuff!

Place the lime and sugar in the bottom of a glass.
Using the handle of a wooden spoon, crush and mash
the limes. Pour the liqueur and ice. Stir well.
SERVE
This is a summer drink to appreciate before eating.
Decorate the glass with a slice of lime
