Okay, it's a mojito in the icon, but bare with me.
Don't use a blender, to make the best cocktail smash up the ice by hand (I tend to stick it in a plastic bag and whack it with a rolling pin - good for crushed ice, a small work out and a rage release). Cut the lime into eighths and place in a sturdy glass, sprinkle two teaspoons of brown sugar over the lime wedges (if you have time, add a little soda and let it sit, especially if you like it really limey, or) smoosh it all up, the end of the rolling pin works just fine. Add in some crushed ice, pour in the booze, stir, enjoy.
By the way, where did you get the cachaça? Or are you just using vodka?
As for photos - Flickr works for me, and I've also heard good things about SmugMug.
