Happy Pisco Sour Day!
February 3rd is a great opportunity to pay homage to Peru’s history, tradition, and craftsmanship as it celebrates its national drink.
First created at Morris Bar in Lima in the early 1900s, the Pisco Sour is a staple at celebratory occasions in Peru and beyond. North Jersey’s Jarana is no exception, as the cocktail is the centerpiece of its colorful beverage program!
Turning the holiday into a month-long celebration, Beverage Director Mike Ryan has introduced 9 variations of the cocktail! “Acurio International’s nationwide celebration of Pisco Month is an opportunity to share our influences and flavors from across the world — from Dubai to San Francisco, Lima to Miami, Barcelona to New Jersey… Every flavor in our Pisco Month roster represents the culinary mixing glass that is Peru-influenced from across the globe, mingled and seasoned in Peru,” says Mike.
