Pisco Sour

Let me talk to you about one of my favorites drinks: “Pisco sour”.
Pisco (from Quechua: pisqu, “little bird”) is an alcoholic brandy-like liquor distilled from grapes (40-45% alcohol).
Pisco sour is the national peruvian drink, containing Pisco , lime juice, egg whites, simple syrup, and regional bitters.

Here is the recipe I normally use to make 2 to 3 servings of this wonderful drink:
- 3/4 cup pisco
- 3 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 egg white
In a blender, whirl 8 ice cubes, egg white & sugar, then add pisco and lime juice, whirl until smooth (you’ll no longer hear the ice cracking against the side of the blender) and serve straight up with a wedge of lime.
Salud!
