PERUVIAN PISCO SOUR
Pisco is a clear brandy that is popular in both Peru and Chile. The white muscat grapes, from which pisco is distilled, were first grown in Peru by the Spaniards in the 16th century (at that time Peru & Chile were both part of Spain's American empire.) When they became independent countries, both claimed the liquor as their own. Therefore the national drink of both Peru and Chile, is the rich "Pisco Sour." However there is a difference in sweetness and the fruit used between the two countries' piscos. I have posted both recipes so be sure to try the Chilean Pisco Sour as well.

Note: Egg whites are sometimes used in chilean pisco sours as well, but for the purist, they will say it is unnecessary adornment.

PISCO SOUR
The pisco sour is sweet-tart, richly textured and crowned with a fluffy white top. The origins of the drink, a blend of pisco (a South American brandy), citrus, sugar and egg white, come with some debate as to whether it originated in Chile or Peru. But it is most commonly said to have been created in the early 20th century by Victor Morris, an American expatriate in Peru. While this recipe calls for using exclusively lime juice, a combination of fresh lime and lemon juice (1/2 ounce lemon, 1/2 ounce lime) works as well. Just don't skip the aromatic bitters, added as a final garnish and often in a decorative pattern: They contribute to the drink's final aesthetic and aroma.

Steps:
- Prepare the simple syrup: In a small saucepan, combine sugar with 1/4 cup water. Heat over low, stirring frequently, just until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Refrigerate if not using immediately. (Remaining syrup will keep in the fridge for up to 1 month.)
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the pisco, lime juice, egg white and 3/4 ounce simple syrup. Cover and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Add ice to the shaker, cover again and shake vigorously until chilled, about 10 to 15 seconds more. Double-strain into a chilled coupe or Nick and Nora glass. Garnish with bitters.
Tips:
- Opt for pisco with a high proof (40-46% ABV) for a stronger cocktail.
- Freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice adds a brighter, more vibrant flavor compared to bottled juice.
- Use simple syrup instead of granulated sugar for a smoother, quicker-dissolving sweetener.
- Garnish with a variety of options like a lime wedge, lemon twist, or a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for visual appeal.
- Experiment with different fruit purees (e.g., passion fruit, mango) or liqueurs (e.g., orange liqueur, Cointreau) for unique flavor variations.
Conclusion:
The Chilean Pisco Sour offers a delightful blend of tangy, sweet, and frothy flavors, making it a classic cocktail enjoyed worldwide. Whether you prefer a traditional recipe or a variation with added fruit or liqueur, the Pisco Sour promises a refreshing and flavorful experience. Its versatility and ease of preparation make it a perfect drink for both casual gatherings and special occasions.
