If you visit one of the oldest bars in Lima, called Antigua Taberna Queirolo, you will find the best chilcanos and butifarras in town. This is not a fancy place, but it offers a wonderful array of Pisco cocktails and infusions.
2 ounces Pisco
ΒΌ ounce lime juice
1 glass ginger ale, icy cold
1 lime slice
Dash of bitters
1. Put the Pisco and lime juice in a tall glass. Add the ginger ale and stir.
2. Add ice cubes and a slice of lime. Finally, add a dash of bitters and serve.
Sprite, 7Up, or any other clear soft drink can be used instead of ginger ale. When using dark soda, the cocktail takes the name of Peru Libre, our version of the famous Cuba Libre made with rum and Coke.
