I’m reminiscing of past travels since this year has been a bust due to Covid. So, today I’m making a delicious Pisco Sour! I learned how to make them from the bartender at the Sanctuary Lodge at Machu Picchu last year.
To celebrate my 60th birthday last year, I took an amazing trip to Machu Picchu and Galapagos Islands. My first night in Lima I was on a mission to taste a Pisco Sour at every little restaurant/bar that we stopped in while strolling through town. Needless to say, I may have had a few too many Pisco Sours…getting up early the next morning for the flight to Cusco was a bit tough. We stayed at the Sanctuary Lodge at the top of beautiful Machu Picchu and the bartender hosted a Pisco tasting class and taught us how to make these Pisco Sours.
So until we can travel overseas once again, I’ll just have to reminisce of past travels while sipping on this Pisco Sour and dream about future travels next year. Fingers crossed!
