This is something we've been drinking every single week since we got here and it is Pisco Sour. That National drink. Audrey's Uncle Coco has been making these for us at night and now we're going to attempt to make them ourselves. So of course, the main ingredient of this is Pisco itself. And Pisco is a hard alcohol that is made from distilled grapes. It has 45% alcohol content which is pretty high. So I've been told that the recipe for Pisco Sour is three, two, one. So that would be three shots of Pisco, two shots of the syrup and one shot of lime juice. And aside from that we're also going to be adding one egg white to create the foam and also topping it off with a little bit of bitter. And I know some people like to serve it without the ice but we're going to be adding some ice because that is the way my family does it. So, that is how we roll. Alright, I think we're done. It is time to pour ourselves a glass. Nice and frothy. Okay, so the final touch is adding a few drops of bitter. Let's do three. Oh my, a little too much in that one. I have to say those turned out pretty well. I am now ready to drink my creation. That turned out really nice. It burns a little as it goes down. But yeah, it is a nice mix of sourness because of the lemon. It is also sweet because of the syrup we've added. A little bit of bitter on top. And it is super frothy with the egg whites. Nice and frothy. Yes. Alright, I've been waiting for this for a while now. You know what, that's actually not that bad. We don't make mixed drinks very often but we did a reasonably decent job on this one. I find this to be a very refreshing drink. This is the kind of thing that I love to have on a hot day. It is also a very social drink which you can share with others. So that is it from our time in Lima, Peru. Salut! This is part of our Travel in Peru series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Peruvian culture, Peruvian arts, Peruvian foods, Peruvian religion, Peruvian cuisine and Peruvian people. All things Peruano. The best of Comida Peruana.
