Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 oz Pisco
- 1 oz Fresh lime juice
- 0.75 oz Simple syrup
- 1 large Egg white
- 4 cubes Ice cubes
- 3 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 wheel Lime wheel
Instructions
Start by chilling your cocktail glass. You can do this by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or by filling it with ice and water.
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of Pisco, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 0.75 oz of simple syrup, and 1 large egg white.
Dry-shake (without ice) the mixture vigorously for about 10 seconds. This helps to incorporate the egg white and create a frothy texture.
Add 4 ice cubes to the shaker, then shake again for another 10-15 seconds. This step chills the ingredients and enhances the frothy consistency.
Strain the cocktail into your chilled glass, holding back the ice cubes.
Carefully add 3 dashes of Angostura bitters to the surface of the cocktail. You can swirl the bitters lightly with a toothpick to create a decorative pattern, if desired.
Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass for a nice touch of color and aroma.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Pisco Sour!
