Giraffas Brazilian Grill is a fast-casual restaurant that was founded in 1981 and now boasts more than 450 restaurants in Brazil. The food seems too good to be labelled "fast". Their menu boasts a delicious selection of traditional Brazilian favorite steaks, chicken and seafood along with rice, beans and other traditional accompaniments. Eggwhites Catering was thrilled to be tapped to produce a fabulous Grand Opening party for their first U.S. location near us in North Miami.
Eggwhites Catering developed a Brazilian catering menu that included a variety of delectable Brazilian specialties that will be featured on the new menu at Giraffas in North Miami. Our mixologists also concocted several delicious craft cocktails.

Guests sipped on Passion Fruit and Strawberry Caipirinha cocktails and our famous Triple Egg Pisco (see recipes below).

Picanha is a seasoned top sirloin steak grilled to perfection and traditionally served with rice and black beans.

BRAZILIAN CATERING COCKTAIL RECIPES

1 Egg White
3 3/4 ounces Chilean Pisco
3/4 ounce simple syrup
1 1/8 ounce fresh lemon juice
Angostura bitters or Chilean Amargo Bitters

In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine egg white, Pisco, simple syrup and lemon juice. cover, shake vigorously for 15 seconds, and strain into a 6 ounce coctail glass. top with a few drops of bitters.
Skewer three hard boiled quail eggs as a fun garnish!
STRAWBERRY PASSION FRUIT CAIPIRINHA - Makes 2 servings
If you like a perfectly muddled mojito, you will undoubtedly love a Caipirinha. the two cocktails are very similar. A mojito includes mint leaves and instead of rum the classic Brazilian Caipirinha is made with cachaça. Cachaça is a distilled spirit made from sugarcane juice and is the most popular distilled spirit in Brazil.
A traditional caipirinha is made with limes without mint, but we love tropical flavors paired with mint. Passion fruit makes a great base for a cocktail. they have a sweet and aromatic taste and deliciously pair well with strawberries. In addition to strawberries, passion fruit, mint leaves and limes, we add a touch of coconut juice and top with club soda for a fun and refreshing cocktail.
INGREDIENTS
1 lime, cut into wedges
10 strawberries, sliced
12 mint leaves
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 cup coconut juice
1 passion fruit, halved
3 ounces Cachaça
4 ounces club soda, chilled
Crushed Ice
INSTRUCTIONS
Divide lime wedges, strawberries, mint leaves and sugar between 2 glasses and muddle. Add coconut juice and scoop the passion fruit pulp with seeds into the glasses. Add Cachaça and top off with club soda, ice and stir.
