Wash and hull the fresh strawberries, then cut them into quarters.
Cut the lime into small wedges, discarding the ends.
In a sturdy glass, combine the quartered strawberries, lime wedges, and sugar.
Using a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon, gently muddle the mixture to release the juices from the strawberries and lime, and dissolve the sugar.
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some room for the cachaça.
Pour 2 ounces of cachaça over the ice and stir well to combine.
Garnish with a fresh strawberry or a lime wedge, if desired, and serve immediately.
