Basil Watermelon Caipirinha While it isn’t a traditional Brazilian Caipirnha, all the flavours are there. Start by muddling 2 tsp sugar into 1 oz of lime juice and basil in an old-fashioned glass. Fill the glass with cubes of watermelon, and pour 2 1/2 oz Sagatiba Pura. What’s great is how the green basil notes and cucumber-like flavor of the watermelon compliment each other. The lime juice adds tartness, and a floral note that keeps the whole thing from tasting too sweet.
