Made it today straight up with an "Italia" Grape Pisco. Works very well with a little bit additional dilution.

I love it! Here at Dentro Bar, we serve it with mint soda, because why not make it fresher and fancier?

Wow! So simple, so basic, so delicious. A Pisco Daiquiri, with mint (okay, you can call it a Mojito, I like Daiquiris better). Still, WOW. Another perfect drink. Try this, it highlights the Pisco, an under-rated spirit for sure.

My limes didn't give that lovely green colour so I added a 1/4 shot of green Chartreuse to the mix. It was delicious. Not only was this cocktail of the day but it was also my favourite part of today! Thank you 🙏🏼

Tried it this time with Capel. The wild mint just started growing, pinched four plump tips. Very aromatic. Two thirds rich cane syrup, one third orgeat and a few drops cardamom bitters. Fantastic. ☆☆☆☆☆♡

Delicious with Caravedo Mosto Verde!

Very nice. Did find it a bit sweet for our taste, so we put in a few drops of Difford's Daiquiri bitters. Lowered the sweetness and pulled out more flavours. As we were having lunch, decided to try it also with adding some soda water. Was very good that way also. Three cocktails from one basic recipe.
