Use other citrus fruit to make caipirinhas, but keep in mind the white layer mentioned above; as long as you use a citrus with a thin skin - and that may vary from citrus to citrus - your caipirinha will taste great. Berries make a sweet and colourful drink as well. Strawberries? Call it Caipi-rubi. Vodka? Caipiroska. The ingredients below are also delicious.
