The Pisco Sour

The Pisco Sour is Perus national drink and is largely unknown to the western world. This sharp lemon flavoured alcoholic drink is made from Pisco, which is a type of brandy only made in Southern Peru and Northern Chile.

The drink is surprisingly good, and only requires a few ingredients. Make sure that you try one whilst in Peru. Here is the authentic Pisco Sour Ingredients.
