A smoky, rustic riff on the caipirinha, this cocktail layers aged cachaça's grassy sweetness with mezcal's earthy char and gin's botanical edge. Fresh muddled lime cuts through the spirit-forward base, while a blackberry liqueur float adds a fruity, slightly jammy finish that settles into the pebble ice. The result drinks like a tropical sunset with a campfire burning nearby—bright citrus up front, dark complexity lingering underneath.
