Equipment

Ingredients

  • 5 oz Pisco brandy, chilled I used Mosto Verde
  • 2 oz lime juice, chilled
  • 2 oz simple syrup, chilled essentially 1 cup water + 1 cup sugar heated until sugar melts into the water
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 drop Angostura bitters

Instructions

  • Place the Pisco brandy in the freezer for at least 2 hours to chill.
  • Place the lime juice and simple sugar in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to chill.
  • Combine the Pisco, lime juice, simple syrup and egg whites into the deep cup that comes with a hand blender. Blend on high for 15 seconds.
  • Pour into glasses, spooning the fluffy egg whites on top of each glass.
  • Finish with a drop of Angostura bitters, or use up to 3 drops according to preference. Drag the point of a knife through the drops to create a swirl. Serve cold with a slice of lime or key lime, if available.
