A Refreshing Lilac Pisco Cocktail

This Lilac Pisco Cocktail is refreshing and perfect for spring. Made with lemon juice, elderflower, simple syrup and Pisco it’s spring in a glass!

A few weeks ago Zan and I attended an event for Tastemade, a new app that allows you to make really cool videos for restaurant reviews, etc. At the event, we had a delicious cocktail made with Pisco, which is a Peruvian white brandy made from grapes.

The national drink in Peru is a Pisco Sour, so this Lilac Pisco cocktail is a little twist on that. It’s made with lemon juice, simple syrup, a few mint leaves, St-Germain Liqueur and of course a few fresh lilacs, which have a sour lemony taste to them. It’s easy to make and is so refreshing.
