This one stings – with its sourness. You can dilute it with tonic water and simple syrup.
The actual ingredients are Pisco, lemon juice and tonic water.
Use lime wedge to garnish and serve in a low ball glass.
I use Fever Tree tonic water from India. Somehow I feel that is better than all other tonic waters…
This one is dedicated to you Jim Giannakakis!! Most favorite summer drink in Peru, there is a whole week in Jan (summer in Peru) that is celebrated as Chilcano week!
Ingredients include Pisco, ginger ale, fresh lime juice, optional simple syrup, angostura bitters and a lime wedge garnishing.
Very refreshing!!
The Chalupa group took a collective timeout this morning. All except three certifiably crazy members. It was raining incessantly and the temperatures had dropped to an unseasonal 50 degrees. The trail was wet, with a lot of water puddles and deceptively slippery.
Giving us company in the otherwise desolate trail were a couple walking their dog and a high school girl out running without her regular Sunday morning school team. Samaresh and I came prepared – at least I had full sleeves on while Samaresh had full rain gear. Manas, on the other hand, came in his patented Sunday morning light T shirt. When I asked him if he was worried, the every funny and self-deprecating Manas pointed to his prospering mid-portion and said “I am my own protection”!. It hurt my sides, I laughed so hard.
I wish I had carried my phone with me. There were some unbelievably beautiful sights of rain falling on the treetops, the small rivulets, the big creeks and all the leaves glistening in the overnight rain that I wished I had captured.
At the end of the run, as we synchronized our “Atchoos”, and collectively cleared our noses (I know. Gross. You see. “Thanda legey gechhey”), we wanted to give a full throated message to our fellow Chalupa- runners – “Alllll Eeeeeez Welllll” 🙂
Great for a wet and cold day like today. Did not have Southern Comfort Fiery Pepper. Instead used some Aji Chileno that I had brought from Chile. Also, sprinkled some cayenne pepper on top to give the nice look and a kick at the end of every sip.
Other ingredients include Mango Vodka, mango pulp, club soda and lime wedge.
Not exactly the best drink for a rainy day like today – more of a sunny day drink but I had to use the blueberries before they went bad on me 🙂
Blueberry vodka, mango pulp, agave nectar, lemon juice and then garnished with blueberries. If I had a lemon, I would have added that as an additional garnishing.
Did you hear about the guy chanting “I am God” and trying to ram a Maryland TV station?
This was always a pious Christian’s worst nightmare scenario. One day, God was bound to see Alec Baldwin in those cycling shorts biking the wrong way on New York streets and say to Himself “This is it. I cannot take this anymore. I have to atone for their sins. Let me pack my gun and bring out my dump truck. I am going to destroy the world. But I will start small. You know a TV station first. Yeah! I know, I will start with the Baltimore TV station first and then work my way up”

This is when you know America has a food problem. Just found out that May is the National Burger Month!
Really? We celebrate all mothers for one day. We celebrate all our fallen soldiers for one day. And for burgers, we keep the whole month? That too one that has not 28, not 30 but the max of 31 days?
God help us. And the cows 🙂
