A standard in Peru. They even bring a free one to the table as soon as you are seated in many restaurants. Delicious and refreshing!
Ingredients - Makes 2
3/4 cup Pisco liqueur
1/4 cup fresh-squeezed lime juice
3 Tbsp simple syrup Recipe below.
2 egg whites
2 dashes Angostura bitters
Steps
- Combine Pisco, lime, simple syrup (see below), and egg white in a cocktail shaker without ice and seal.
- Shake vigorously until egg white is foamy, about 10 seconds.
- Add ice to shaker and shake again very hard until well-chilled, about 10 seconds. Strain into chilled cocktail glass; dash bitters atop the egg-white foam.
For super easy simple syrup:
In a jar, combine ½ cup water with ½ cup superfine sugar. Seal jar and shake like crazy until sugar is completely dissolved. Keep remainder refrigerated.
For standard simple syrup:
Stir the sugar and water together in a small saucepan over medium low heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. When the syrup comes to a simmer, remove from the heat. Do not let boil!! Cool to room temperature before adding to drinks and cocktails.
