pisco sour
Lime-forward Peruvian libation
A pisco sour is a cocktail made with pisco (a South American grape brandy), lime juice, simple syrup, egg white, and bitters.
The drink is frothy from the shaken egg white.
Both Peru and Chile claim it as a national drink, reflecting their broader dispute over pisco's origins: We ordered pisco sours at the Lima restaurant.
