Gather @ice cube{12}.

Trim the white core from the @lime{2} quarters and drop four pieces into each tumbler with 2 teaspoons of @sugar{4%tsp}.

Muddle firmly, pressing the limes just enough to release juice and oils from the skin.

Stir until the sugar dissolves into the lime juice.

Pack each glass to the top with ice and pour 60 ml of @cachaça{120%ml} over.

Stir well from the bottom up, garnish with a lime wheel and serve with a short straw.
