A pisco sour recipe by Simon Willison
A pisco sour is a Peruvian cocktail and the country’s national drink. Here are the ingredients:
- 3/4oz simple syrup (1/1 ratio sugar to water by weight)
- 1oz lemon juice
- 3oz pisco
- 1 egg white
- Bitters (Angostura or other)
I’ve never had one of these and I don’t remember seeing it on any cocktail menus in the UK, which is a shame.
