ABOUT
This is a Peruvian classic, built on the bright, floral notes of pisco and the crisp bite of grapefruit or Pomelo. Originally crafted in 1950s Lima, it was a favorite among bohemian artists and intellectuals. These are Peruvian bartender Tatiana Flores updated specs, adding lime juice for extra brightness. Cheers y’all!
