What is the bartender tip for a Brasileiríssimo?
An Americano with açaí in place of the extra Campari and vermouth: built in the glass, a light stir, soda last so the fizz holds. Quero Chuva Açaí com Guaraná is the bottle in the video, already sweet. Açaí pulp does not cover it — there is no alcohol. Sweet red vermouth; dry vermouth changes the drink. A fresh orange wheel, not a dehydrated one. It is not the Americano (Campari, vermouth, and soda, no açaí), the Negroni (gin in place of the soda), or Giuseppe in Brazil (açaí and pineapple, layered, no Campari).
