Recipe procedure.
- Choose a large glass, and add the ice cubes, and the squeezed lemon juice (the glass, will be used to calculate the amount of pisco sour, that we are going to make).
- Next, add the pisco de quebranta, and the egg white (here it is important to distinguish, and separate the egg white from the egg yolk).
- We add it inside the shaker (the preparation of procedure one, and two), and begin to beat from top to bottom. And let it all mix together.
- We make sure that it is well mixed, and does not contain parts that are still missing to mix; to do this, whisk for 30 seconds. And serve.
- To taste, serve in glasses (as shown in the photo), garnish with Angostura bitters, and serve for the most special occasions of your life.
