Notes
Pisco Portón is a brand widely available in the U.S. market. We enjoyed the Biondi that we picked up in Cuzco.
You can use either ginger ale or ginger beer. Hansen's all natural soda has a really nice flavor.
3 ounces is a good amount of pisco, and the drink doesn't taste strong. Proceed carefully!
