Doing as the Romans

During our wine tour (ahem, location 2, subpoint 3).... we were encouraged to sample the local liquor that the Peruvians are so proud of.  It's called Pisco, named after the place it was created.  It's allegedly a brandy, but to me, tastes like kerosene.  The famous cocktail it's used in is called the Pisco Sour, which looks and tastes like a margarita.

Behold my first taste:

and the boys':




Not too appealing, eh?  Well then, we went to another winery and, as Mary Poppins says, we added a spoonful of sugar.  The manager of the winery had spent several years living and working in marketing in the States, and clearly understands what Americans like.  He infused the pisco with lemon and gave us shots of it with honey.  Did we like? 




The accidental videos are always the best.

Viva la Peru!
