Servings

Embark on an exquisite journey to the heart of South America with the euphoric blend of passion fruit and the venerable Pisco – Peru's national spirit. Our Passion Fruit Pisco Sour is an intoxicating dance of tartness and sweetness with a frothy top that celebrates the biodiversity of the Andes and the ingenuity of Latin American mixology.

Unlike its traditional lime counterpart, this delightful twist incorporates the vibrant and exotic flavor of passion fruit, known as 'maracuya' to locals, which adds a tropical layer to the revered classic. The Pisco Sour has a storied past, one that takes flight in the early 1900s when an American bartender pushed the boundaries of cultural collaboration, leading to what we now cherish as a symbol of Peruvian pride. Prepare your senses for a tantalizing tale of taste, where every sip brings you closer to the spirit of Latin America.
