PIsco PUnch drunk In Love

It’s Valentine’s Day! Just kidding, I don’t fucking care. Here’s a list of things you can do on Valentines day; eat chocolate, drink champagne, tell someone you love them, love yourself. Hot tip, its also a list of things you can do every day!  Whether you’re a Valentine’s Day fan or you prefer to abstain, I propose that this Pisco Punch is the perfect cocktail for all eventualities. 

Trying this Pisco Punch cocktail at the Comstock Saloon, complete with their secret ingredient, is at the top of my to-do list. Until then, I’ll be substituting the Nichol juice for lime bitters, since the only info I have on it is that it's a tincture made from Makrut lime leaves. For more history about this cocktail you can read all about it in Trevor Felch’s book San Francisco Cocktails. 

Pisco Punch (Comstock Saloon)
2 oz. Capurro Pisco
1 oz. Fresh lemon juice
.75 oz. Small Hands Foods Pineapple Gum Syrup
3-4 dashes Scrappy Bitters lime bitters

Combine all ingredients in a shaker with ice, shake until chilled and strain in to a glass over a large ice cube. Garnish with a twist of lemon.
