Trim the pale bitter tip off both ends of the lime, then cut it into 6–8 wedges. Drop them into a sturdy short glass.
Add the sugar straight onto the lime.
Press and twist with a muddler or the end of a wooden spoon for 20–30 seconds, until the sugar dissolves and the limes release their juice.
💡 Muddle firmly but don't pulverise the peel — grinding the white pith too hard turns the drink bitter. A gentle press-and-twist is enough.
Fill the glass with crushed ice right to the top.
Pour over the sparkling water, stir gently from the bottom to lift the lime and sugar, and serve at once with a straw.

💡 အကြံပြုချက်များ

Honest note on alcohol: a real caipirinha is an alcoholic cocktail — Brazil's national drink — made with cachaça, a spirit distilled from sugarcane juice (around 40% ABV). This version is deliberately alcohol-free by swapping in sparkling water, so it is safe for children and anyone avoiding alcohol.
For a non-alcoholic drink with a little more body, replace half the sparkling water with white grape juice — it hints at the roundness cachaça would give.
The same method works with other fruit: muddle in a few strawberries, a slice of pineapple or some passion fruit pulp before adding ice.
