Pisco Sour

The pisco sour isn’t what you’d call a hot seller these days, but in the boom time following the California gold rush this lively cocktail was one of America’s most popular drinks. Pisco is the name of a robust brandy made in Peru and Chile from muscat grapes. Serve pisco sours with any of the anticuchos (Peruvian kebabs) in this book or with any other South American barbecue.
