Have you ever heard about Pisco Punch ? Let me tell you a story.
Since the pandemic started and we stopped hanging out at bars, I decided to discover new cocktails, made my syrups, and came across the fantastic world of mixology. I was skeptical about it, but once I tried to experiment, I needed the right tools and a lot of patience. A mixologist is an artist. I have so much respect for mixologists. Contrary to what many people think, becoming a skilled mixologist takes work. As I continue to experiment with spirits and wine mixology, I recently came across Lapostolle Pisco.
A long time ago, I had a Pisco Sour as a recommendation from one of my friends in the Vibrant Neighborhood of Queens. I wouldn’t say I liked the egg on it since I was a vegetarian. However, I understand it is needed to provide the typical consistency on the pico sour. So I am happy I came across a recipe for a Pisco cocktail that is much more on my preferred side of flavors, with a burst of citrus flavors and those chic Angostura bitters.
