      <content>yeah its a traditional peruvian drink made with pisco brandy, lime/lemon, sugar. 
 
they also make ceviche and when the liquid is left over after eating the fish, they pour in pisco and drink it down...its a manly thing. ;)</content>

      <content>Pisco sours are lethal.  I'd put a limit on how many you serve.  Pisco is as bad as Cachaca, which comes from Brazil where they call this drink a Capirinha or Batida Paulista, depending on what part of Brazil you're in.  Same ingredients as a classical Daquiri, but those other liquors are not something we're used to.  Yummy, though, and a different twist to the ubiquitous Margarita.
 
Case in point:  I had a cousin who was in Peru many years ago and some guys he met in the hotel bar bet him he couldn't drink four Pisco Sours.  He drank them, and was feeling perfectly sober, until he got up to go to the men's room.  He said his legs just disappeared and he ended up on the floor.</content>
