Ingredients
  

  • 1 lime
  • 2 tsp Swerve Granular variety
  • 5 ounces cachaça

Method
 

  1. Cut a lime lengthwise, then crosswise, then cut each segment in half so you end up with 8 equal chunks of lime. Put 4 lime segments in the bottom of 2 rocks glasses.
  2. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of Swerve over the limes in each glass. Muddle the limes until they've released their juices and the Swerve is mostly dissolved.
  3. Add ice to the top of the glasses, then pour 2.5 ounces of the cachaça over the ice in each glass and stir.
