The Caipirinha de Saquê is a variation of the classic Brazilian Caipirinha, traditionally made with cachaça. The substitution of cachaça with sake is a relatively modern adaptation, reflecting a fusion of Brazilian and Japanese influences, possibly introduced through the significant Japanese-Brazilian community.

The Caipirinha, in general, is deeply embedded in Brazilian culture as a symbol of relaxation, socializing, and national pride. The Caipirinha de Saquê, while a variation, still benefits from this cultural association while also reflecting a spirit of innovation and culinary fusion.
Social Drink
Like the traditional Caipirinha, the Caipirinha de Saquê is often enjoyed in social settings, such as bars, restaurants, and informal gatherings with friends and family. It’s a drink associated with celebration and relaxation.
Modern Adaptation
The use of sake represents a modern adaptation and reflects the openness to experiment with different ingredients and flavors, particularly influenced by global culinary trends and the integration of different cultural influences within Brazil.
Brazilian Identity
While adapted, the drink maintains a clear link to the Brazilian identity through the core elements of lime and sugar, representing a respectful nod to the traditional drink, while embracing a new twist.

The Caipirinha de Saquê offers a unique twist on the traditional Caipirinha. It retains the refreshing citrusy sweetness of lime and sugar but replaces the robust, earthy notes of cachaça with the smoother, subtly sweet, and sometimes fruity character of sake.
The primary flavors come from the fresh lime juice, which provides tartness and acidity. The sugar adds sweetness to balance the lime's sourness. The sake contributes a delicate alcoholic base, typically with hints of rice and subtle fruity or floral undertones, depending on the sake's type. The result is a smoother, less intense alcoholic beverage than the original Caipirinha.

Sake Selection
Choose a sake that complements the lime. A junmai or junmai ginjo sake often works well, providing a balanced flavor profile that's not too overpowering.
Lime Preparation
Use fresh, ripe limes. Cut them into wedges, removing the white pith to avoid bitterness. Muddle gently to release the juice and oils without over-extracting the bitter components.
Sugar Dissolution
Use fine sugar or simple syrup to ensure it dissolves evenly in the drink. Granulated sugar can sometimes leave a gritty texture.
Ice Quality
Use good quality ice to avoid diluting the drink too quickly. Large cubes or crushed ice are both acceptable, depending on preference.
