This cocktail was on my must try for many months and I finally got around to it. It was much enjoyable as we love Pisco Sour and I had the opportunity to test a new cocktail foamed I just got myself. I gave it a 4.5 but need to practice with the new foamer, I am however already happy that it has neither the smell nor the taste of one I had to dispose of. Next test tonight with the Nomad’s Amaretto sour.
