Crimson Andean Mist

Imagine the classic Pisco Sour, but with a bold twist that brings forth a rich color and a subtle fruity note, perfect for those looking to explore new horizons within this beloved cocktail. The Crimson Andean Mist is a visually striking and tastefully innovative take on the traditional Pisco Sour. The addition of a splash of beetroot juice not only adds a vibrant hue but also an earthy undertone that complements the zesty and floral notes of the Pisco. Ingredients: - 2 oz. Pisco - 1 oz. fresh lime juice - 1/2 oz. simple syrup - 1/4 oz. fresh beetroot juice - 1 egg white - 3 dashes of Angostura bitters - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. In a shaker, combine the Pisco, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, fresh beetroot juice, and egg white. 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well chilled. 4. Double strain into a chilled Nick & Nora glass to remove any ice shards or pulp. 5. Garnish with three dashes of Angostura bitters swirled gently with a toothpick to create a marbled effect on the egg white foam. The Crimson Andean Mist is best served in a Nick & Nora glass, which offers an elegant and classic presentation that perfectly showcases the vivid layering of colors as well as the light foam on top. This cocktail provides a refreshing yet complex flavor profile, ideal for those after-dinner conversations or a sophisticated gathering.
