Batida de Carneval

Cocktail Description

This Brazilian-inspired frozen cocktail transforms cachaça's grassy funk into a tropical symphony that dances between creamy indulgence and bright fruit notes.

The Batida de Carneval combines the distinctive sugarcane spirit with luscious mango purée and fresh orange juice, while condensed milk adds a silky, dessert-like quality that tames the cachaça's edge without masking its character. Simple to prepare with just a blender and a few ingredients, this frozen delight makes for a refreshing poolside companion or the perfect nightcap on warm summer evenings. It shines particularly well alongside spicy foods—try it with jerk chicken, spicy fish tacos, or Brazilian feijoada for a cooling counterpoint that enhances rather than competes with bold flavors. The Batida de Carneval works equally well as a casual weekend refresher or as the signature cocktail for tropical-themed gatherings where you want something more sophisticated than standard frozen margaritas.
