Mix up some love for your mama

Let’s get our hard working Mamas off their feet with a cocktail in hand.

I have a cocktail recipe from William Sonoma Taste that’s sure to impress and refresh.

Rosé Pisco Sour

A pure delight to enjoy during an abnormally hot spring day. Perfect to put your mom in the Mother’s Day mood after a long brunch with the inlaws.

Herbal aromatics with a soft pink hue and an off-dry sweetness to finish.  

Perfect to serve in any cocktail or wide wine glass. Garnish with a flower from the bouquet you purchased, or a thin lemon slice.

Just in case you don’t recall my directions for a pisco sour, here’s a recap.

  • In a cocktail shaker, add one egg white, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, pisco and lots of ice.
  • Shake vigorously to create the fresh foam. Once you’ve shaken, strain gently, pouring into your glass. Slowly pour in your rosé. A soft Gamay Noir rosé would be perfect for any wine lover.
  • Add a few dashes of your choice of bitters; orange blossom bitters would be best. Add garnish and serve.

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 (50 ml) Pisco
  • 1oz of your choice of Rosé – suggestions are Maison L’Envoye Rosé or Josh Rosé
  • 3/4 oz (20 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 oz simple syrup
  • 1 egg white
  • Full glass of crushed ice
  • Orange blossom bitters, or bitters of choice
