]]>The liquor, which is similar to brandy, originates from grapes used to make wine in Chile and Peru. It’s common in the West Coast region of South America and is a perfect drink to enjoy the warm and sunny climate of the region.
Pisco can be found at most decent liquor stores, so be sure to find it before embarking on this flavor adventure! If not, your pisco sour just won’t taste right. Here’s the recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 parts pisco liquor
- 1 part simple syrup
- 1 part fresh-squeezed lime juice
- 1 egg white
- Ice cubes
Start off by adding all of the ingredients to a cocktail shaker. Be sure to add ice, as this will chill down the drink to its desired temperature.
Shake the ingredients thoroughly, enough to create the characteristic foam for which the beverage is known.
Strain into a glass, and serve immediately. If you’d like, you can sprinkle a dash or two of angostura bitters into the drink, but they aren’t necessary.
Enjoy!

]]>The dish has spread from there to other countries, most of which are Spanish-speaking. For example, now you can find different forms of ceviche in coastal Mexico and in various Central American countries.
The base of ceviche is marinated raw fish or seafood that has been soaked in a type of sauce in order to “cure” it.
The traditional form of ceviche, which can be found in most South American countries, calls for the fish or seafood to be marinated and cured in a sauce that consists principally of citrus juices and seasonings.
However, one popular form of ceviche sticks out and is common in Ecuador. This “tomato” ceviche calls for the acidic base of the sauce to be tomato, resulting in a very unique and interesting flavor.

Or well, red! #vegetarian #gogreen #tomatoceviche #tortillachips #cocteles #coriander #lechedetigre #cocktailhourThe other additions to the ceviche usually include seasonings like garlic, aji, and salt. It’s also common to find vegetables such as onions and chili peppers mixed into ceviche.
This refreshing dish is a great choice for summer and warm days.
