The Olympics<\/a> have been the only thing on our mind the past few days. And while we can’t be in Rio to cheer on Michael Phelps or\u00a0our elite team of gymnasts, we can definitely\u00a0bring Rio to us with a refreshing cocktail.<\/p>\n

You can thank Cachaca, a popular Brazilian liquor that’s the base of almost every cocktail in Rio! So when we found out that\u00a0David Burke fabrick<\/a> and Spyglass Rooftop<\/a> were creating cocktails inspired by Rio, we knew we had to snag the recipes. Whether you’re a sweet or savory kind of person, there’s a cocktail for you. So sit back, cheer on Rio, and bottoms\u00a0up!<\/p>\n
