My friends thought I lost my mind, serving a cocktail made with egg whites. I was disappointed to learn that I was the only one who liked it... I don't care, more for me! Robert, you keep inspiring me to try new cocktails. I made my Pisco Sour with Pisco de Ica Demonio because it was the only one available in the Netherlands. They had to ship it from Amsterdam...
Eli the Owl, We are glad you enjoyed the Pisco Sour. It is one of our favorite cocktails here at Small Screen Cocktails! Too bad your friends did not like it! Like you said, more for you! Thank you for watching!
Thank you for making this cocktail. It is the creation of Victor Vaughen Morris originally in Cerro de Pasco on July 28, 1904. It is actually made with a LIME. The Limes in Peru is actually like our KEY LIME smaller. I like the shaking with out ICE, as the foam becomes softer and silkier. . . SALUD ! . By: Donna Morris (Morris Family)
Im peruvian and actually both fruits you`re holding are lemons for us. We have both but we use the green ones most of the time. Some people call the yellow lemons: Royal lemons. What we call Limes are just a bit smaller than oranges, rounded shaped and less sweet with a tiny bitter flavour.
To resolve the confusion about lemons and limes, know that when Peruvians or several other Latin Americans hear the word "lime" they think of "Lima", which is a relative of the grapefruit. Yet they think of lemons as a two variation citrus (green and yellow). We Americans have always differentiated them as lemons and limes. Believe me, it took me years to figure this one out until I traveled there.
I’m from India and there’s such a thing as a “sweet lime” which in fact looks like an oversized and paler lemon but is more like an orange. So although the Peruvians lime may somewhat resemble a lemon, based on what you describe it’s far from being a lemon. Great video though, and a great drink
Well, I dont want to ruin anybody´s conclutions on the "lemon-lime" matter, but i´m from Colombia (right next to Perú) and I can tell you that our lemon trees give both (yellow and green) fruits. in other words you may have in colombia, perú or ecuador, yellow lemons and green lemons. Actually many from this "yellow lemons" are destined to be exported because in europe they only buy yellow lemons. this means we use all of the green ones here. essentially they come from the same plant.
The first grapevines used in modern Pisco production arrived in La Serena in 1548, and in Peru from the Canary Islands in 1574.[9] There is also reference that Pisco has been produced in the Chilean cities of Santiago and La Serena in mid 16th century.[6] In contrast to Peru and Chile, Spanish settlers in the viceroyalty of New Spain established only very few vineyards.[10]...So, I would say it has a chilean origin
This is like the old, boring dispute about the origins of Vodka. Some claim they are in Russia, others in Poland. To me that's absolutely pointless. There are good Pisco brands in both countries, but the Peruvian recipe for the Pisco Sour, with egg whites and Angostura, is much better than the Chilean one, never mind if you use Chilean or Perivuain Pisco as the basis for the cocktail.
Make sure to pronounce it "piss-co". That's the correct way to pronounce it. "Pisss-co". And say it repeatedly, like far more often than necessary. Cheers.
The information you’re given is totally incorrect because you just taking about one county but is two countries that make this drink and Chile uses lemon same as USA uses, is a shame that you tell people about pisco sour not knowing what you are taking about and is up to taste to choose from each county by the way chilean way doesn’t use the egg only if is Peruvian way
Excellent. Thanks for the explanation

Your remember me „two and a half man“ with your shirt 😄. Nice job 👍🏽 🥂
Robert, Try Pisco Porton. I sampled it here in NYC and it was a good quality Pisco made in a distillery which has been around since 1684. ~Patrick
my all time favorite cocktail
Thanks for the tip, Patrick!
Thanks for watching!

This episode is...EXCELLENT
Excellent show
Great video thank you! Pisco is 100% peruvian. I would personally add only 1/4 egg white for one cup of pisco.

Love Sweden you can order any drinks you want and the government has to give you what you ordered! :D
lucky to be you. here in china, most stuff are not available, i don't even know if the bottles i have are legit.
PISCO IS PERUVIAN! Chile only uses the name “pisco” to sale the yellow color liquor,totally different
The bottle got roberts name on it....
it is strange how they eat lemons like oranges but not limes, because limes are more bitter and tart than lemon but significantly less sour.
EL PISCO ES 100% PERUANO.
Make sure to pronounce it "piss-co". That's the correct way to pronounce it. "Pisss-co". And say it repeatedly, like far more often than necessary. Cheers.
Pisco (Pee-sco)! Please not Piss-co!
Correct Sir!

Dings credibility when Pisco (pee-skoo not piss-ko) pronunciation is wrong. Otherwise the info is spot on!
Peruvian don't drink Pisco..........you didn't know?.....right?.....
