It is not Spirit Thursday, but I have a thirst for some interesting drink choices. So expect two straight days of spirit drinks. We have covered pisco on Spirit Thursday before. It can make a nice twist at your event. It’s easy and delicious and is a great base to be used in place of other spirits.
Pisco Portón is versatile and mixable and can be consumed neat or with traditional mixers. We recommend the following to capture the spirit of Peru and enjoy the bold, smooth flavor of Portón. And who is not up for some autumnal deliciousness at your next tailgate.
