Pisco Sour
The Pisco Sour is a national drink of Peru and Chile, originating in the early 20th century, created by American bartender Victor Morris at Morris Bar in Lima. This cocktail uses Pisco, Peru's national spirit, as its base, with egg white providing a silky texture, and is considered one of the most representative cocktails of South America.
